A Mexican earned a master’s degree in molecular biology at the age of 12

He is an admirer of the Portuguese player Cristiano Ronaldo, he has two cats as pets, he likes “parkour”, electronic music and pop, besides spending his free time on video games”Grand Theft Auto V”. The 12-year-old boy is restless like any teenager, but unusual at the same time.

At 18 months he had the vocabulary of an adult, at age 3 he learned to read, at age 6 he was diagnosed with a high IQ, and at age 9 he passed primary, middle and high school all at once accredited to the bachelor’s degree pharmaceutical chemist biologist, on the exact sciences campus of the University of Guadalajara (western Mexico).

“From a young age I knew chemistry, microbiology, hematology, biology, molecular, I also participated in general chemistry competitions, I won first and second place and at that moment I said: I have to learn more, I have to go deeper; I have accredited all my degrees and started looking for a career that involved all these branches,” said the young man.

Surrounded by veteran scientists and students twice his age, Ian made his way into a world that increasingly captivated him, so much so that he was able to enroll in a master’s degree halfway through in an attempt to quench his thirst for knowledge .

His mother, Sandra Santoshas been his accomplice in opening teaching rooms for him and sought the necessary support so that he could follow the master’s program at the same time as the bachelor’s degree.

“When I finished my master’s degree, I had such amazing, incredible knowledge and it was perfectly complemented by what they taught me in molecular biology and genetics subjects, that is, I had a lot of doubts and by going even deeper, something became so great for i give it. I thank my mother and everything I learned because that way I had more knowledge, more questions and I learned a lot more,” she said.

From bachelor’s and master’s degrees graduated cum laude, but he was always interested in doing scientific research. He recently collaborated with an academic from his campus on a study into a way to break down PET plastic using bacteria.

“I’m working hard on this to pay off and also to be able to support humanity in something, to get an article published, even if it’s as a research assistant, even if it’s not a big step,” he stated.
