INAHTA Board Director (2024-2026)
AETSA, Spain

I have been involved in INAHTA(2004-2012) when I was responsible of the HTA Agency located in Madrid, Spain and again since December 2018 leading and coordinating the Andalusian Regional HTA, AETSA. In the meanwhile I have been working for the European Commission in a Medical Device Taskforce for supporting the MD and IVDs new regulations. During last years I have contributed to the INAHTA, EUnetHTA, ISPOR and HTAi Society. I was particularly involved in the INAHTA Quality Assurance SG and during last year in the Patients Engagement SG.

Briefly, I’m a physician specialized in Preventive Medicine and Public Health with several master programs, MPH, MHTA, MHE, with peer review articles published in international journals on health technologies in different fields (e.g., surgery, oncology, diagnostic imaging, cardiology, ophthalmology). In AETSA, we are involved in international projects collaboration with other INAHTA members and participating every year in INAHTA, EUnetHTA, ISPOR and HTAi Society meetings. With my previous managerial experience in HTA Agencies, and in the field of EBM, Systematic Reviews, Clinical Guidelines, Health Service Research and HTA, and my special interest in this field at international level, I hope to have the opportunity of contributing to this international organization serving the common interest of INAHTA members.
