Clara Valero is a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Manchester in the Manchester Fungal Infection Group led by Prof. Michael Bromley. Her research focuses on determining the molecular mechanisms that allow the human fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus to cause pulmonary infections and overcome antifungal therapies. She has worked on understanding the transcriptional machinery that allows A. fumigatus to adapt to stress conditions upon infection and treatment and recently she has begun to uncover novel genetic drivers that promote antifungal tolerance in this major human fungal pathogen.
