Was born in Barcelona on May 1st, 1959. He obtained his medical degree at the University Autonomous of Barcelona in 1982, and so he did also the Doctoral Thesis at the same University in 1992. Since 2010 he is Associated Professor of Medicine, since june 2021 Full Professor. He attended to the internal resident program (MIR) at the Internal Medicine Department at Vall d’Hebron General Hospital in Barcelona from 1986 to 1990, and currently is working as a Senior Consultant and as Head at the Systemic Autoimmune Diseases Unit at the same hospital. He has been focused to the study of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy for more than 25 years and has published several relevant articles and book chapters on the field. Taking care of the patients, teaching at the University and doing research are the three main activities in regard to myositis patients he is committed to.
Research lines Canine-myositis study In this study we collaborate with the Faculty of Veterinary located at the Barcelona Autonomous University (Dr. Santiago Lavin) along with the Department of Pathology of the University of California (Prof G. Diane Shelton). The only myositis spontaneous animal model is found in dogs, especially in Collies, and when it accompanies cancer, in Boxers. Several antibodies have been described in dogs but it is not known if they are also found in humans. Alternatively, myositis specific antibodies may be positive or negative in dogs. If human beings and dogs share a common autoimmune response, a new door can be opened to deepen in the etiopathogenia and the species-specificity of these illnesses.
