Doctor in Veterinary Medicine (D.V.M.) from the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC) in 1993, and Ph.D. in Veterinary Medicine from the same university in 1997. In 1998, she began her teaching career as Associate Professor at the Faculty of Veterinary Sciences in Lugo (USC) and, since 2010, has continued as Professor specialized in Veterinary Anatomy and Histology. Her research interests focus on diverse fields, from the macroscopic to microscopic morphology of various body systems in different animal species of veterinary interest (both domestic and exotic). Additionally, she investigates alternative preservation methods to formaldehyde (aiming to maintain its preservative properties while being less harmful to the health of teachers and students) for specimens used in Veterinary Anatomy teaching, such as preservation with saturated saline solution.
