ORCID: 0000-0001-6067-9332
Scientific Profile: URecerca
Eulàlia Puigdecanet is Professor in the Faculty of Medicine and in the Faculty of Sciences and Technology at the University of Vic-Central University Catalonia (UVic-UCC).
Dr. Puigdecanet research career has been related to genomics and molecular biology by performing translational research using high-throughtput technologies. She developed her PhD within a hospital context, at Cytogenetics and Molecular biology Laboratory at Hospital del Mar (Barcelona). She focused on the characterization of haematopoietic diseases at molecular level using techniques for omics data analysis together with routine diagnostic procedures. Later, she continued her research career within the Microarray Analysis Service at the Institut Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute (IMIM), where she worked as Laboratory Responsible (2009-2019). In this period, she developed multiple projects using high-throughput technologies to elucidate the genomic and molecular basis of cancer and other diseases. Currently, she has joined TR2Lab to investigate the mechanisms underlying tissue repair and regeneration.
Eulàlia Puigdecanet is PhD in Cellular Biology from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (2012) and a degree in Biology from Universitat Pompeu Fabra (2003), with a specialization in Clinical analysis laboratory.
My last happenings:
Clara Masó participates in the “Present Your Thesis in 4 Minutes” competition at UVic-UCC
Clara Masó, PhD candidate, participated on May 13 in the 9th edition of the competition “Present Your Thesis in 4 Minutes”, hosted by the University of Vic – Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC) in the context of the first European Doctoral Day. The event brought together 14 doctoral students from 8 different PhD programmes, all taking on the challenge of explaining their research in just four minutes. The competition aims to promote clear, engaging, and accessible scientific communication, encouraging participants to present their work using only their oral communication skills. This initiative highlights the importance of bringing research closer to [...]
Marta Casals Zorita presented her doctoral thesis at the International Nurses Day in Osona
Marta Casals, a member of TR2Lab, delivered a presentation on her doctoral thesis titled "Education program to improve adherence to self-care recommendations for people with complex wounds of the lower extremities" on May 12th. The event provoided an opportunity for professionals to meet and share experiences and insights regarding the nursing profession. The theme of the meeting was "Empowerment that saves lives: caring as nurses in the context of war and humanitarian crises".
Extracellular Matrix-Derived Hydrogel to Model and Study COPD
Renata Kelly da Palma carried out a three-month research stay in Brazil, at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of São Paulo (USP), in collaboration with the research group led by Prof. Dr Paulo Manuel Pêgo-Fernandes. During this period, she worked on the development of extracellular matrix-derived hydrogels to model and study Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). These hydrogels are biomaterials obtained from extracellular matrix components and are designed to reproduce some characteristics of the natural environment of tissues. They can be used to create more realistic experimental models for studying disease mechanisms and may also have future applications in [...]
