I qualified in Veterinary Medicine from the University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain, in 1993. I then studied for a PhD in epidemiology at the same University and conducted research as a visiting scientist in the USA, Canada, Brazil and Portugal. After three years working for the industry, I came back to academia in 2002 first as a lecturer and since 2006 senior lecturer in population medicine at The Royal Veterinary College.

My work focuses on the health of livestock populations and its socioeconomic and public health implications. I conduct applied research on a range of diseases, production systems and geographical areas. I teach epidemiological methods at undergraduate and postgraduate levels in London and regularly contribute to international training programs in veterinary epidemiology.
