Dr. Gómez is a postdoc in the Musculoskeletal Systems Biology Lab in the Department of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine and the Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine where she is advised by Dr. Ronald Young Kwon. Dr. Gómez’s work integrates genetics, aging, and bone biology. She seeks to develop zebrafish as a discovery platform for the identification of genes that contribute to senescence-induced decline in bone formation. Dr. Gomez received her Ph.D. in Molecular Medicine and Mechanisms of Disease from the University of Washington.
