I graduated in Physics and received a PhD in Materials Science at the UAB. I completed my education at the KTH in Stockholm and at Northeastern University in Boston. In 2005, I spent over two years as a Seconded National Expert in Brussels at the Research Directorate. At present, I am a Research Professor at the ICMAB where I lead the Nanoparticles and Nanocomposites Group.
I am interested in issues related to gender equality and education of science at all levels. Other interests are geo-politics, literature and travelling. I have lived and worked for extended periods of time in Sweden, USA, UK, Poland and Belgium
I am a materials scientist working in the preparation, characterization and new uses of functional nanomaterials. My scientific activities revolve around the rational design and synthesis of inorganic and hybrid nanoparticles and bio-based nanocomposites and the study of their structural-functional properties, including the better understanding of nano/bio/interactions. My driving force is to prove the validation of nanomaterials in applications related to Nanomedicine
