Fabiola León-Velarde Servetto (Lima, June 18, 1956) is aPeruvian physiologist who has devoted her research to thebiology and physiology of high altitude adaptation. Born in Lima, Peru. She is the daughter of Carlos Leon-Velarde Gamarra and Juana Servetto Marti from Uruguay, and granddaughter of Angelica Gamarra. Under the mentorship of high altitude physiologistCarlos Monge Cassinelli, she obtained a BSc. in Biology (1979), an MSc (1981) and DSc (1986) in physiology atCayetano Heredia University inLima, Perú.

She was Rector of theCayetano Heredia University (UPCH).^[1] She was previously Vice-President for Research of UPCH and Chairwoman of the Department of Biological and Physiological Sciences at the same university. She has also been Vice-President of theInternational Society for Mountain Medicine and, during nine years has been doing collaborative research with the Human Respiratory Section of the Laboratory of Physiology of theUniversity of Oxford in theUnited Kingdom, where she has been invited as "Fellow" of the "Queen's College". At the moment, she is also Associated Investigator of ARPE/UFR of Medicine of theUniversity of Paris XIII inFrance.

She has been a consultant in diverse national and international institutions, including theInternational Center of Research for Development (CIID) ofCanada, on the health problems in theAndean Region and of theInternational Labour Organization (OIT). In the last years she has participated as a Consultant in theAntamina Mining Project and at theAndean Organism of Health. At the present time, she is Review Committee member of theNational Council of Science and Technology [CONCYTEC], theNational Agency for Scientific and Technological Promotion (SECYT-FONCYT), theInternational Foundation for Science (IFS) and member of the Board of Directors of the National Superintendence of Higher University Education (SUNEDU).

Leon-Velarde has a vast scientific production that has been published in more than 80 abstracts and more than 100 peer-reviewed articles in international scientific journals. She is also author of chapters in several books aboutaltitude sickness and related topics particularly in the Andes. She is a member of important scientific societies such asThe American Physiological Society and theAcademy of Sciences of Latin America.

Leon-Velarde is a founding member of the judging panel ofPODER's Think Tank of the Year Awards Archived 2022-03-08 at theWayback Machine that aim to celebrate the good work done by think tanks in the country.

Leon-Velarde is the mother of one son, Gianpiero Leoncini Leon-Velarde.
