Biography

Full professor at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech, researcher at Computational Biology an Complex Systems research group (BIOCOM-SC) from the Institute for Research and Innovation in Health (IRIS). My research is focused on the mathematical modelling of infectious diseases like tuberculosis, COVID-19 and RSV, among others, from different perspectives. We use computational models to better understand the natural history of tuberculosis inside the lungs, using a virtual bronchial tree where we implement an agent-based model that describes the dynamics of granulomas. We also adrress the epidemiological dynamics of different respiratory viral and bacterial infections, identifying the main drivers and exploring the predictive capacity of models.
