I studied a Bachelor in Science in Biochemistry at the University of the Balearic Islands. Then I moved to Barcelona to study an MSc in Genetics and Genomics (University of Barcelona). After working in a research group at the IDIBELL for several months, I returned to Mallorca and started an internship at the IdISBa through the SOIB-programme Joves Qualificats. Recently, I obtained the grant TALENT PLUS Junior to carry out my PhD, focusing on Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).
