I am a predoctoral researcher in the Diagnostic Nanotools group. My job entails the development of rapid diagnostic assays for infectious diseases.

I studied Nanoscience and Nanotechnology at the UAB (2019) and later specialized in the field of biomedical research by doing the Biomedical Engineering Master's at the UB-UPC (2021). I started my stay at VHIR during my master's internship where I developed an electrochemical malaria diagnosis point-of-care device. In the same research group, I began working as a laboratory technician on a project on synthetic erythrocytes for influenza surveillance.

The I-PFIS grants enabled me to enroll in a doctoral program at the end of 2022, allowing me to work on developing infectious disease diagnostic devices for my doctoral thesis.
