I have developed in particular the study of prognostic factors, multiple sclerosis of the child and adolescent, as well as family planning in women with multiple sclerosis. I am currently a member of the Advisory Ethics Committee (CEA) of the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital.

I have published more than 369 articles in national and international journals and am a regular reviewer of indexed journals both national and international. My factor H is currently 60 and until April 2026 my work has received 26,854 citations.

Research lines

Multiple sclerosis and Gender

We focused on studying the impact of sexual hormones and the different reproductive stages of a woman's life on multiple sclerosis. As part of this project we have achieved the following publications:


1 - Menarche, pregnancies, and breastfeeding do not modify long-term prognosis in multiple sclerosis.

2 - Oral contraceptives do not modify the risk of a second attack and disability accrual in a prospective cohort of women with a clinically isolated syndrome and early multiple sclerosis.

3 - Menopause does not modify disability trajectories in a longitudinal cohort of women with clinically isolated syndrome and multiple sclerosis followed from disease onset.

4 - Menopause and multiple sclerosis: Influence on prognosis and role of disease-modifying drugs and hormonal replacement therapy.

Related news

A study conducted at the Catalan Multiple Sclerosis Centre (Cemcat) shows that the lack of a reduction in neurofilament light chain during the first year of treatment is associated with a higher risk of subsequent disease activity.

The project’s 4th annual meeting was recently held as part of the Fortalece–Salud programme of the Carlos III Health Institute.

An international study led by researchers from Vall d’Hebron shows that simple tests that patients can perform themselves help detect changes in disability that may occur even in the absence of disease relapses.
