We are a young and vibrant institution recently founded as part of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) Juriquilla Campus in the city of Querétaro.

Our mission is to tackle some of the most pressing research challenges in Mexico and Latin America through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates biological, mathematical, and computational sciences. We conduct genomic science research focusing on paleogenomics, evolution, mathematical modeling, disease genomics, ecology, statistics, and more.
