Biography

I did my bachelor’s degree in Bioinformatics in Barcelona, and then moved to the UK to do my bachelor’s thesis at Cambridge University. Then, I did a first master in Translational Medicine (Barcelona), and a second one in Neuroscience (Barcelona) where I carried out my Master Thesis in Barcelona Supercomputing Center using machine learning to study neurodegenerative diseases.
After my masters, I started working at Vall d’Hebron in the neurology department as a bioinformatician.
