After graduating in Biochemistry from the Complutense University of Madrid (2018), I completed a Master’s in Advanced Microbiology (Clinical specialization) at the University of Barcelona (2019). In September 2019, I joined ISGlobal as a Research Assistant, where I developed my PhD on identifying anti-parasitic compounds against Trypanosoma cruzi, supervised by Dr. Alonso-Padilla and Prof. Gascón. I obtained my PhD in Medicine and Translational Research (UB, 2023) with cum laude distinction. During my PhD, I received a UB mobility grant for a 3-month stay at the Oswaldo Cruz Institute (Brazil), where I trained in 3D spheroid cultures for drug evaluation. I also worked with clinical samples from Chagas patients using flow cytometry, microscopy, and sequencing techniques, and supervised two undergraduate and six Master’s students. In August 2024, I conducted a postdoctoral stay in Bolivia, contributing to local healthcare strengthening. Between 2022–2024, I combined research with teaching as Associate Professor at UB, and since 2024 I have been a lecturer across undergraduate, Master’s, and postgraduate programs. I have contributed to projects such as EULAC-PCI2023, studying environmental factors in Chagas and leishmaniasis, gaining experience in vector analysis. I also participate in outreach activities and am a member of the Imported Pathology and Emerging and Reemerging Diseases group, CIBERINFEC) and NHEPACHA networks.
