Biography

I am a Nephrologist at Hospital Clínic of Barcelona, currently working in the Dialysis Unit within the Department of Nephrology and Renal Transplantation. My clinical activity encompasses the management of patients with end-stage kidney disease, as well as those undergoing renal replacement therapy with both in-center and home dialysis modalities. Additionally, I have specialized training and experience in vascular access management and interventional nephrology. My main areas of interest include home dialysis therapies, aiming to promote patient autonomy and sustainability in renal replacement therapy, and the complex interplay between the heart and the kidney in cardiorenal syndromes. I am also deeply interested in mineral and bone disorders in chronic kidney disease and their clinical implications. In parallel with my clinical work, I am currently pursuing my PhD focused on the study of novel biomarkers of kidney allograft rejection, integrating immunological and molecular approaches to improve non-invasive diagnosis and graft monitoring.
