Since 2017 I have been the head of the immunology service. I have more than thirty years of experience as an immunologist and also experience in the coordination of improvement programs, in providing methodological support in matters of quality of care, in the use of tools for the design of strategic and functional plans and in process management. Master in Direction and Management of Clinical Laboratories. UAB (2000). I have worked in cellular immunology until 2009 and in immunoproteins from 2010 to the present. I am secretary of the clinical committee for primary immunodeficiencies, vice-president of the subcommittee for the personalization of pharmacological treatments and a member of the clinical committee for complex glomerulopathies. Elected member of the Clinical Board 2022-2024. Member of the In Vitro Diagnosis Commission of the HUVH (2015-). I have participated in quality issues as a member of the Quality Committee of the VH Clinical Laboratories (LCVH) (2011-May 2016), member of the HUVH Quality Support Center (2004-2007) and I have been accredited since 2012 as an auditor Technical Expert in Diagnostic Immunology by ENAC (ISO-15189). I am the president of the LCVH Teaching and Training Commission since June 2017 and a member (2013-16), Tutor of Immunology residents (2011-16), associate professor of the Immunology knowledge area of the Department of Cell Biology, UAB Physiology and Immunology since December 2007, Coordinator of the "Immunodeficiencies" module from 2011 to 2017 and of "Immunopathology" and "Autoimmunity" of the Master's Degree in Advanced Immunology at the UAB-UB from 2021 to the present. I am a doctor in Biology (1996) and a researcher in the "complement pathology" line of the VHIR Traslacional Immunology research group. Coordinator of the immunochemistry working group of the Spanish Society of Immunology (SEI) from 2015 to 2020 and member of the Board of the SEI from 2020 to the present
Research lines Primary Immunodeficiencies Our group is focused in the cellular and molecular mechanisms of primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs). Our specific projects include: 1-Expanding the genetic and molecular basis of Primary Immunodeficiencies using high-throughput Technologies. 2-Cellular and molecular basis of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). 3-Cellular and molecular basis of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID). PI: Dr. Roger Colobran PI: Dr. Mónica Martínez-Gallo PI: Dr. Clara Franco-Jarava This line is developed in collaboration with the group of "Infection in the immunocompromised pediatric patient" (Head: Dr. Pere Soler-Palacín). IP: Mónica Martínez Gallo, Manuel Hernández González, Roger Colobran Oriol Genetics and immunological factors in COViD-19 Determinants of severity in COVID-19 are still poorly understood but are suspected to be predominantly host factors. Besides age, sex and previous comorbidities, we investigate two other general host factors: 1-Genetic variants causing life-threatening COVID-19: We are mostly focused in genetics of immune system. This research line is under the COVIDHGE consortium. 2-The state of the immune system seems to be an important factor but the immunotypes of risk have not yet been clearly defined. The aim of this line of research is to identify the immune mechanisms that determine the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection in order to propose and validate biomarkers of prognosis and therapeutic requirements.
