Daniel Ignacio Piñero Dalmau (born 9 December 1951) is a Mexican evolutionary biologist and professor at the Instituto de Ecologia in the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).[1][2] His main research interests lie in population genetics, ecology and molecular evolution. He has studied the evolutionary history of a diverse set of plants, animals and bacteria in Mexico, and is a pioneer in population genetics studies in Mexico.
Early life and education[edit]
Piñero was born in Mexico City, Mexico in 1951. He earned his Bachelor of Sciences degree in Biology in 1975 at the National Autonomous University of Mexico.[3] After that, he started his first investigations on plant ecology and obtained a master's degree for his studies on the demography and reproduction of the tropical palm Astrocaryum mexicanum at the National Autonomous University of Mexico under the guidance of José Sarukhán.[4][5][6] He then obtained his Ph.D. in Genetics with an emphasis on Population Genetics and Evolution at the University of California, Davis under the supervision of Robert W. Allard.
Research and Career[edit]
Daniel Piñero took a position at the Instituto de Ecologia in the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) in 1979. He continued his population genetics studies on Astrocaryum mexicanum,[7][8] and started studying other species such as beans,[9][10][11] the Rhizobium genus [12][13] and the agave.[14] He also developed research line focused on understanding the evolutionary processes driving the genetic diversity patterns of Mexican Pines.[15][16] Recently he has also started investigated the process of plant domestication in Mexican crops.[17][18] He has directed more than 20 bachelor degree's thesis, 15 master's degree thesis and 20 Ph.D. thesis.[19][20]
Science communication[edit]
Piñero regularly publishes science communication articles.[21][22][23] He is also the author of two books where he explains the fields of Genetics[24] and Evolution[25] for the general public.
Awards[edit]
Daniel Piñero received a recognition award for his contributions on Ecology from the Mexican Scientific Society of Ecology.[26]
