Since 2008 I coordinate the Pediatric Neurosurgery Unit (NCP) of the HUVH, considered as a Reference Service (CSUR-NCP Complex) by the Ministry of Health since 2013. My clinical fields of greatest interest are: pediatric neurosurgery, hydrocephalus and other alterations of the CSF dynamics, brain trauma, craniocervical junction and skull base surgery, and neuro-oncology. I am accredited as a Senior University Professor by ANECA and in Advanced Research by AQUCAT. I have participated in advisory committees such as the Advisory Commission for Serious Polytrauma Patient Care (Generalitat de Catalunya) and the Emergency Commission of the Traumatology Area of HUVH. I am a member of the Organizing Committee of the biannual International Symposium on Neuromonitoring and Treatment of Neurocritical Patients since 1994 and of the PICSmartCampus teaching platform (https://smartcampus.neurotrauma.net/), aimed at training in different aspects of neurocritical patients and patients affected by complex alterations of CSF dynamics. I also belong to the European Reference Networks on Rare Neurological Diseases (ERN-RND), ITHACA and CRANIO, in the latter I am responsible in our center and it is directed to craniofacial malformation pathologies. In relation to research, I am part of the multinational European projects CENTER-TBI, KidsBrainIT and BrainI2.
