About
Iago Carballo is a biomedical researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of glycobiology and clinical epidemiology, particularly the use of serum N-glycans as predictive biomarkers for mortality. His most cited study, "Serum N-Glycans as Independent Predictors of Death: A Prospective Investigation in the AEGIS Cohort" (2025), demonstrates how total plasma N-glycome profiles—reflecting enzymatic glycosylation patterns—can serve as independent prognostic indicators of survival. This work is notable for advancing the understanding of post-translational modifications in high-mortality pathologies, offering a non-invasive tool for risk stratification. Carballo’s research highlights the clinical potential of glycomics, a field that examines the complex sugar structures on proteins, to uncover signatures linked to disease progression and death. His contributions are particularly impactful for students and researchers interested in biomarker discovery, precision medicine, and the translational application of glycobiology. With emerging citation influence, Carballo’s work is laying groundwork for integrating glycan analysis into routine clinical assessment, promising to improve early detection and monitoring of life-threatening conditions.
