Postdoctoral researcher
Health Research Institute of the Balearic Islands/CIBER, Spain
I have a BSc in Nutrition and Dietetics, and an MSc and PhD in Nutrigenomics and Personalized Nutrition. During the first part of my research career, I focused on the involvement of specific nutrients on the development of obesity and the metabolic syndrome. In the last few years, I have shifted towards epidemiological research, studying the relationship between diet and lifestyle with cancer development, progression and survivorship. Our team are developing a series of tools to be used in clinical care and public health strategies to promote a healthy lifestyle for cancer prevention and more recently to be used for cancer survivors.
