Involved in research

"If I don't know a thing, I will investigate it" - Louis Pasteur

Since the beginning of my training as a physician, I have dedicated a significant part of my time to clinical research. I have always believed that to be a good professional and provide the best patient care, it is necessary to question everything we do, listen to our patients and colleagues, conduct research, and then continuously improve. 

Not least, during the last few years I have been the author of several research studies in national and international journals, speaker at congresses and moderator in training courses for specialists. I have also authored several book chapters in dermatology. 

As a result of these efforts I have been able to publish my Doctoral Thesis at the University of Barcelona entitled: "Prognosis in melanoma. Optimization of follow-up schemes.". Which has obtained the qualification of Outstanding cum laude.
