Biography

My research experiences to the date have made me discover my passion for developmental haematology, a field that lies in the intersection between developmental, stem cell and cancer biology. My commitment to research in the field goes far beyond my academic training. As a former blood cancer patient, I aim to bridge the gap between haematology patients and researchers. I collaborate with the biggest blood cancer foundation in Spain, my home country, to teach blood cancer patients about their diseases in an understandable way. During my PhD at the University of Cambridge I aim to explore human blood stem cell fate decisions during foetal life, understanding their differentiation dynamics and the molecular underlying mechanisms. I feel honoured to have been chosen to be part of the Gates community. I am determined to keep working to produce high quality research in the field of haematology whilst engaging in the society to improve the quality of life of blood cancer patients.
