Graduated in Biology (University of Barcelona). My phD focused on cellular and molecular aspects of murine macrophages. In 1998 joined the Dept H&I of the National Blood Service in London as a post-doctoral fellow, working on Dendritic Cells. In 2002 moved back to Barcelona granted by the Spanish Ministry of Health and joined the Institut d’Investigacio Germans Trias i Pujol (IGTP), leading my own research group. We are mainly focused on kidney-affecting diseases with specific interest in Extracellular Vesicles and innate immune cells
