I hold a PhD in Molecular Genetics and a degree in Biotechnology. After a period in scientific research participating in national and European projects, I started my career in research management in 2017. I have worked as a project manager in several biomedical research institutions, gaining extensive knowledge in funding calls, consortium building, and the management of competitive projects. Currently, I lead the Pre-Award Unit at VHIR, managing both the national and international Pre-Award teams. I also serve as Principal Investigator in projects funded by MCIN aimed at improving VHIR’s internationalization and leadership in international projects. In addition, I teach in VHIR master’s programs and have been part of the scientific committee of a patient association.
