Beatriz Martínez - Genetic Mutations

Author Information

Beatriz Martínez is a researcher affiliated with the Molecular Genetics Laboratory at the Institute for Immunological Research, University of Cartagena, located in Cartagena, Colombia. Her research primarily focuses on genetics and human identification, with a particular interest in genetic diversity and ancestry in African-descended populations.

Research Contributions

Beatriz Martínez has made significant contributions to the field of genetics, especially in the areas of human identification and genetic diversity among populations of African descent. Her recent work includes studies on genetic diversity in Colombia, the roots of African American communities, and the mitochondrial genetic profile of the Yoruba population from Nigeria. She has also conducted genome-wide association studies related to asthma in individuals of African ancestry and evaluated Y-STR haplotypes in Nigerian populations. Her research has implications for both forensic science and the understanding of genetic risk factors for diseases in African-descended populations.
