Ph.D in Genetics and Master’s Degree in Genetics and Developmental Biology from the University of Barcelona. Her speciality is the genetic diagnosis and study of the molecular bases of sight pathologies. She obtained a University Staff Training (FPU) grant at the University of Barcelona and a post-doctoral scholar contract from the Fundació de la Marató de TV3 at the Vall d’Hebrón Research Institute (VHIR). She obtained a University Staff Training grant (beca de Formación de Personal Universitario, FPU) at the University of Barcelona to carry out her Ph.D thesis based on the functional study of the genes involved in the retina dystrophies. Subsequently, she obtained an employment contract under the Fundació La Marató de TV3 grant at the Vall d’Hebrón Research Institute (VHIR) taking part in diverse projects involving gene and cell therapies focused on retina dystrophies in animal models.
