Services for individual researchers

Identification of funding sources

Identification of funding sources

Identification of national and international funding sources for research projects. It is not always easy to find the specific institution, foundation, or call for your research projects. Frequently, highly valuable research projects are rejected, not because they lack excellence, but because they fail to identify the right funding source. I will help you find options and guide you with different alternatives so that your projects find the appropriate niche and have a much higher chance of being accepted.

Project formulation and planning

Project formulation and planning

Assistance in the formulation and planning of research projects.
Once you know where you will apply to finance your project, you must be well-prepared for the correct formulation, design, planning, and application to the funding institution. I have extensive experience not only as a researcher applying for funding for my projects but also as a trained and experienced Expert Evaluator of research projects for the European Commission. I will make my knowledge, contacts, and expertise available to you to ensure an excellent application with greater chances of success.

Guidance in grant applications

Assistance in applying for externally funded projects.
Grant applications are complex and time-consuming. While the theoretical and scientific part of your application is among the most important aspects, it is not the only one. There is a whole set of administrative and organizational requirements for which you must allocate extra time to fulfill these demands. Often, we leave this until the last minute and do not give it the necessary attention, which can cost us valuable points. Other applications, whose scientific content may not be as excellent as yours, but that have met all the requirements of the call on time and in full, will have a higher chance of being funded, leaving you regretting not having paid attention to these aspects. My services also include support in these tedious sections of the applications, providing you with ideas, options, and alternatives, as well as helping you “polish” your application.

Coaching para mujeres / mamás en ciencia

Orientación específica para mujeres que buscan avanzar en sus carreras científicas, superando barreras y desafíos únicos. Mi orientación para mujeres en carreras científicas aborda desde la identificación de barreras y desafíos personales y profesionales, hasta el desarrollo de habilidades, redes de apoyo y promoción de la diversidad e inclusión. Siendo madre yo misa, transité por todas las etapas que esto conlleva en medio de mi carrera científica: planeación de embarazos durante mi etapa como postdoc, apoyo familiar durante esas etapas estando fuera de mi país, lactacia, cuidado del (los) nuevos integrantes de la familia, búsqueda de apoyos gubernamentales o institucionales para esas etapas, búsqueda simultánea para las siguientes oportunidades en mi carrera, nuevas aplicaciones, reinserción a la vida académica después de una larga pausa, etc.
Para desarrollar una carrera científica competitiva, te quiero transmitir aprendizajes de varias experiencias propias y de varias colegas para ayudarte a encontrar un equilibro saludable entre la vida laboral y personal. Esto te dará mayor impulso para alcanzar un bienestar y éxito profesional a largo plazo.
Hablaremos de estrategias para gestionar el estrés, establecer límites claros entre el trabajo y la vida personal, así como fomentar prácticas de autocuidado. Me interesa ser un apoyo nuetral, amistoso y objetivo en tu propia trayectoria, deseando tu empoderamiento como mujer en la ciencia.

Guidance for beginners

Guidance for beginners

Guidance for beginners in the world of scientific research regarding interactions with colleagues, project initiation, design, planning, and execution of a scientific career.
If you are still a student or just taking your first steps in the field of research as a postgraduate, you probably have many questions about how to face the vast range of problems and challenges in this world. It is true that much is learned through practice, but it is always advisable to be prepared to avoid mistakes that later lead to frustration and wasted time. In this session, I will explain the most important aspects, from how to interact professionally with your colleagues and superiors, to how to launch research projects and begin planning a career in your field of interest.

Stays and exchanges abroad

Stays and exchanges abroad

Assistance in applying and formulating letters of interest for research stays abroad.
Although drafting a project and applying for short-term funding, such as a research stay or academic exchange, may seem relatively easy, this is not actually the case. The competition for these types of exchanges is very high, and the chances of success are limited. Therefore, it is always important to tailor applications to specific calls and fully understand the requirements for each one. For short stays, you must “sell” your application very well but in a different way than you would if you were applying for long-term funding for your project in your home institution. I can guide and help you prepare, plan, and write letters with concise content directed at the heads of the research group you want to join. I can also support you in improving your applications comprehensively.

Modern and dynamic strategies to establish valuable relationships in the scientific field.
We will go beyond simply “liking” a profile on LinkedIn. I will provide you with strategies to establish valuable relationships in the scientific field.
What seems most natural to some may turn into the most difficult challenges for others. How to establish friendly and productive interactions with colleagues in your field—from your lab neighbor to the “big shot” on the other side of the world. We will learn how to make the first contact, whether in person or through online correspondence, how to build a mutually beneficial relationship, and how to maintain long-term professional ties.

Psychosocial Support

Psychosocial Support

Advice on situations related to anxiety, depression, burnout, motherhood, fatherhood, and living abroad while working in science.
Phenomena such as anxiety, depression, and burnout are unfortunately not uncommon in our field. I am not a therapist, but I have, unfortunately, experienced these issues myself, and I know that sometimes, more than anything, what one needs is someone to listen and understand. There will not always be a solution that satisfies all the dimensions involved, but there is always room for improvement.
I offer support to researchers facing specific challenges, such as motherhood, fatherhood, and adapting to life abroad, among others.

Long-term mentorship

Long-term mentorship

Strategic planning for a successful career in scientific research: master’s, doctorate, postdoctoral studies, professorship, transition to industry.
If you are aspiring to a successful career in the field of scientific research, it is essential to plan long-term to avoid losing sight of the bigger picture when facing day-to-day obstacles. However, it must be understood that simply having a plan, that is, a desired path, will probably not work as expected, as there will be numerous deviations and distractions along the way. In this context, through my long-term mentorship, we will maintain continuous contact over months and, in most cases, several years to assess and readjust your path. I will accompany you in the strategic planning of a successful career in scientific research, whether it be a master’s degree, doctorate, postdoctoral studies, a professorship, or a transition to industry. While the focus of the mentorship will be the overall development of your career, all the services mentioned below can naturally be included depending on your needs.
