Argentine molecular virologist
Andrea Gamarnik
Andrea Gamarnik at L'Oréal-UNESCO Awards for Women in Science in 2016
Known for work on dengue fever Scientific career Fields virology
Andrea Gamarnik (Capital Federal , Argentina, 5 October 1964)[1] is an Argentinian molecular virologist noted for her work on Dengue fever .[2] She received a 2016 L'Oréal-UNESCO Awards for Women in Science fellowship for work on mosquito -borne viruses include Dengue fever .[3] [4] She also was granted the Konex Award Merit Diploma in 2013 and the Platinum Konex Award in 2023 for her work in those last decades.[5] She studied at the University of Buenos Aires and the University of California, San Francisco . She has done work for the Leloir Institute .[6] She is the first female Argentinian to become a member of the American Academy of Microbiology .[7]
Biography
[ edit ]
Early years
[ edit ]
Gamarnik was raised in the city of Lanús .[8] In 1988, she graduated in Biochemistry with golden medal in the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry, University of Buenos Aires , due to her family's effort and a scholarship from the Lanus College of Pharmacists.[9] Gamarnik finished her doctorate studies in the same university in 1993, then, between 1994 and 1999, did a post-doctorate in virology in the University of California in San Francisco ,[10] [11] where she studied the molecular mechanisms of poliovirus.[8]
Professional career
[ edit ]
Gamarnik worked at the biotech company ViroLogic on the development of phenotypic assays for HIV, and hepatitis B and C viruses between 2000 and 2001. She returned to Argentina at the end of 2001 to join the Leloir Institute,[12] [13] [14] where she created the first Molecular Virology laboratory,[15] and from which she has already published more than 30 research papers on the dengue virus.[16] From 2005 to 2011, Gamarnik was an International Research Scholar at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.[17] She is currently head of the Molecular Virology Laboratory at the Leloir Institute Foundation,[18] [14] [19] [20] independent researcher at the National Council for Scientific and Technical Research (CONICET),[18] [14] associate editor of the journal PLoS Pathogens , and member of the editorial board of the journal Virology.[21] [22] [23] [24]
One of the most important research that came out of the Molecular Virology laboratory at the Leloir Institute , was the discovery of the mechanism by which the dengue virus multiplies between molecules.[18] Additionally, in 2015 they determined what the dengue virus needs to pass from mosquito to human, that is, how it changes to be able to infect two types of cells.[16]
Gamarnik actively participates in policy discussions related to the promotion of science and women in science, from speeches at award ceremonies[25] or interviews with sitting presidents in Argentina,[26] [14] to signing public letters with the S&T Group.[27] [16] Additionally, she has published research in prestigious journals in her field such as Genes and Development, Virology, RNA and Journal of Biological Chemistry.[18] Her studies on viral attenuation mechanisms are the basis for the design of vaccines, which resulted in a technology exported to the United States.[18]
During the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020, Gamarnik and her team at the Leloir Institute developed the first antibody test for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, "COVIDAR IgG", in only 45 days. This antibody test was manufactured in Argentina.[28] [29] [30] [31]
