Valeria Rivarola

Researcher at Universidad de Buenos Aires (Biological sciences)

Buenos Aires

Dr. Valeria Rivarola is a researcher at Instituto de Fisiología y Biofísica Bernardo Houssay and a physiology teacher at Facultad de Medicina (Medical School) of Universidad de Buenos Aires in Argentina. She has more than 20 years of experience in cellular physiology specializing in pH homeostasis and its influence on several cellular functions. This background facilitates the integration of the role of the acidic cancer cell environment in malignant cell survival. Valeria has also devoted her career to teaching physiology to future medical doctors and has specialized in virtual technologies applied to physiological learning. Valeria's motto is that physiology is a whole entity where everything is related. With this goal in mind, she has created a successful YouTube channel "Fisio Mania" devoted to making videos that explain physiology topics that are hard to understand by her students.
