I have received my medical degree from the University of Barcelona in 1990 and my specialization in psychiatry in 1995. I have been working as a clinician in different hospital units linked to Benito Menni CASM.
During the period 2000-2004 I have participated in the design and management of a new department of psychiatry, in conjunction with Granollers General Hospital. Since 2005 my main focus has been on enabling and enhancing research activity and co-ordinating this with clinical care. Since 2011 I have combined this with responsibility for the management and administration of the FIDMAG Sisters Hospitallers Foundation.
I am part of the research group led by Peter J. McKenna to Cibersam. I am working on the main research lines, both basic and clinical, on schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and affective disorders. I am working on my doctoral thesis on motor impairment in schizophrenia, both in their neuropsychological and neuroanatomical aspect, analyzing the underlying structural and functional alterations in neuroimaging techniques.
I have always understood that research complemented the care and treatment of people with mental disorders.
