I am a Medical Oncologist who graduated in Medicine from the Universidad Católica de Córdoba. After completing my residency training, I pursued a fellowship at the Hospital Universitario Vall d’Hebron and subsequently undertook an observership at the Università degli Studi della Campania Luigi Vanvitelli in Naples, Italy.
I currently work as a Consultant Medical Oncologist at the Hospital Universitari de Vic, where I am involved in clinical work and clinical research, alongside teaching activities. My clinical practice focuses on breast cancer and gynaecological cancers, allowing me to integrate patient care with research in a direct and meaningful way. I am actively involved in the training of medical residents and in undergraduate teaching at the Universitat de Vic – Central University of Catalonia, where I serve as Associate Professor of Oncology.
Since September 2022, I am pursuing a PhD in Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at the Universitat de Vic – Central University of Catalonia, supported by an Industrial Doctorate fellowship. My research focuses on translational research in gynaecological cancers, with a particular emphasis on endometrial cancer. In parallel, I am also enrolled in a postgraduate Expert Programme in gynaecological cancers at the Universitat de Girona, further strengthening my specialised training in this field.
