Summary

Dr. Nguyen Esmeralda López-Lozano is a microbial ecologist who earned her doctorate in Biomedical Sciences from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM). She has extensive research experience in microbial diversity and ecosystem processes, mainly focusing on biogeochemical cycles in desert soils.

Since 2014, Dr. López-Lozano has been a CONACyT professor in the Environmental Sciences Division at the Potosi Institute of Scientific and Technological Research. Her research focuses on plant microbiomes in arid environments and the role of microorganisms as bioindicators of ecosystem health. She investigates how both biotic and abiotic factors shape microbial communities and utilizes microbial parameters to assess environmental stress. In recent years, her work has also explored how microbiome insights can be applied to restoration and conservation efforts in arid regions.
