Professional ​
info​​
Currently I am head of Biomedical Department at CIMNE and CIMNE CARDIO-LAB. My main research area is linking computational medical image and finite elements methods to create virtual/augmented medical models.
​
Since 20I5, I am associate professor of Strength Material at Barcelona East School of Engineering from Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya.
​
My major challenge is to integrate my knowledge gained on computational medical image and computational methods into robust and fully reliable computer models and "in silico" environments that will help the development and testing of new therapies and better disease prediction and prevention tools, in healthcare.
I am working in the area of Virtual Physiological Human(VPH) looking for new opportunities in the biomedical Sector. I have great experience in national, international R&D projects (H2020, FP7, ITEA, ARTEMIS....) and within private companies.
