Gabriela Bosque

I am a neuroscientist and educator with a Ph.D. from Yale University and extensive experience in academic research, teaching, and mentorship. My research has focused on the neural and genetic mechanisms underlying social behavior, and I bring strong analytical skills with expertise in MATLAB, Python, and R. As a committed educator, I’ve taught university-level courses in neuroscience, physiology, and medical theory across the U.S. and Europe.

I am passionate about advancing diversity in STEM, demonstrated through founding and leading mentorship programs for underrepresented students. I’m currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Puerto Rico, where I support research and grant development in neurosurgery.

She is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus, supporting research and grant development in neurosurgery. Previously, she lectured in anatomy, medical theory, and psychobiology at Universitätsmedizin Hamburg and the University of Europe in Berlin, teaching and evaluating cohorts of pre-medical and psychology students. As a graduate researcher at Yale University, her work on the neural and genetic basis of social behavior in mice resulted in multiple peer-reviewed publications.

She also served as Deputy Editor of the Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine, leading its most internationally diverse issue on medical technology.
