About me

Welcome! I am a neuroscientist and occupational therapist working as a professor and research group coordinator at the University School of Nursing and Occupational Therapy of Terrassa, Autonomous University of Barcelona.

My research focuses on the development of new multimodal interventions for neurorehabilitation, studying both clinical benefits and the mechanisms of brain plasticity that promote the recovery of individuals.
My passion lies in the intersection of neuroscience and occupational therapy, where I explore innovative approaches to enhance the well-being and quality of life of individuals suffering from neurological conditions.
