Doctorado en Ciencias Biológicas de la Universidad de Warwick, Reino Unido (2000-2005). Postdoctorado en la Universidad de Warwick, Reino Unido (2005-2007) y en la Universidad de Manchester, Reino Unido (2007-2010). En 2010 retornó a la Argentina como investigadora asistente del CONICET con lugar de trabajo en el Laboratorio de Genética del Comportamiento de la Fundación Instituto Leloir (2010-2014). Desde 2014 forma parte del área de Neurociencias del IBioBA, donde dirige una línea de trabajo en Neurobiología del Sueño. En el año 2021 fue seleccionada como Jefa de Grupo.
