I am a senior consultant of the Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology Service of the Sagrat Cor University Hospital of Barcelona, Tutor of MIR Residents (external accreditation) and Associate Professor of the Department of Surgery of the Faculty of Medicine of the UB (accreditation as Professor Lecturer in Health Science). Although my teaching work is focused on teaching Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology, both for undergraduate students and COT residents, my research work is in the field of Paleopathology. Since the 90s I have been collaborating periodically with the Biological Anthropology Unit of the Autonomous University of Barcelona and the Egyptian Museum of Barcelona.
Main areas of research
- Paleopathology.
- Evolution of cancer from ancient remains.
- Bone and soft tissue tumors: early diagnosis, special radiology and surgical treatment.
