Biography

I am Associate Professor at the University of Girona (UdG) and Senior Researcher at the Girona Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBGI), Spain. My research has focused on cellular mechanisms associated with cardiovascular and epithelial health and disease. Specifically, I have worked on protein trafficking and localization in polarized epithelial cells, mainly, on the regulation of the endocytic pathway and transcytosis. In particular, my research has contributed to elucidating how the retromer endosomal protein complex regulates the polarized protein sorting (PMID: 26944621; https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4409/15/5/483). In recent years, I have focused specifically on the cardiac voltage-gated sodium channel, NaV1.5, in particular, on the channel-associated beta 2 subunit, including the analysis of post-translational modifications (PMID: 33602743; PMC11532958).
