Clinical pharmacologist and public health researcher. Working in maternal and child health since last 5 years.
I am a Spanish Paediatrician with a special interest in infectious diseases and tropical medicine. During my last year of Paedaitric training I focused on infectious diseases and spent 3 months at the Manhiça Health Research Centre in Mozambique. I then undertook an MSc in Tropical Paediatrics at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, UK, with a 3 month stay in an HIV treating centre in Lilongwe, Malawi, studying predictors of lost-to-follow uo from HIV programmes of children living with HIV. I then moved to the coastal area of Ecuador, Esmeraldas, were I worked for a year at the emergency department of the public district hospital as the head paediatrician, managing mainly acute infectious and tropical diseases. During my stay in Ecuador, I obtained a Wellcome Trust Clinical PhD Fellowship through the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine. For my PhD, I set up a cohort study to investigate predictors of acute asthma in children in Esmeraldas, Ecuador, as I realised that asthma was a large public health problem in this setting, and that children with asthma were under diagnosed and under treated. After the succesful PhD, I moved to the University of Bern, Switzerland, to gain more trainign in epidemiology and clinical research as a postdoctoral researcher at the Paedaitric Respiratory Epidemilogy group at the Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine.
