Dr. Raquel Irina Medina Ramírez, PhD, is a physiotherapist and researcher specialized in clinical assessment and physiological evaluation in pediatric and adults, specially in neurological populations. She holds a PhD in Health Sciences and is currently Assistant Professor at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (Spain), where she combines teaching and research in neurosciences. Her research experience includes multidisciplinary clinical studies focused on the evaluation of functional, cognitive, autonomic physiology, and sleep-related alterations in children and other vulnerable populations. She has authored and co-authored peer-reviewed publications in international journals such as Children, BMC Pediatrics, PLoS One, Frontiers in Physiology, and Journal of Clinical Medicine, addressing clinical diagnostic approaches, physiological biomarkers, and outcome assessment in complex conditions. Her work reflects an interdisciplinary and translational perspective bridging clinical diagnostics, functional evaluation, and child health research based on autonomic nervous neuroscience.
