About

Pedro Luis Herrera Merino is a Full Professor at the University of Geneva Faculty of Medicine, located in Switzerland. His research primarily focuses on pancreatic islet biology, including insulin secretion mechanisms, β-cell ablation effects, and islet cell identity. His recent articles explore topics such as transcriptional reprogramming of glucagon-producing α-cells and immunological aspects of islet cell transplantation.
