Biography

Since 2003 I have been a member of the public health research group at the University of Alicante, where I have had the opportunity to participate in research projects on gender violence that have led to technical reports for the Women's Health Observatory of the Ministry of Health. of the Government of Spain. Additionally, I have led and participated in interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary projects on sexual health and reproductive health in the Chilean and European context. I have used qualitative and quantitative methodologies in research on gender inequalities and their impact on health. In recent years, I have participated in technical committees of the Ministry of Health of the Government of Chile for the design of the national health strategy for the health objectives for 2030 and the Trans Health Policy for Chile. From 2017 to 2023 I have been a member of the editorial committee of the Gaceta Sanitaria.
