Soy Médico-cirujano, Magíster en Salud Pública y Doctorado en Epidemiología y Salud Poblacional. Desde el año 2011 me integré como académico en la unidad de Nutrición Pública del INTA y actualmente formo parte del equipo de investigadoras del Centro de Investigación en Ambientes Alimentarios y Prevención de Enfermedades Crónicas Asociadas a la Nutrición (CIAPEC). Mi principal área de investigación ha estado enfocada en estudiar la epidemiología del cáncer de mama. Actualmente estoy evaluando cómo la nutrición y el crecimiento durante la infancia puede afectar o no la composición mamaria al final de la pubertad. Además, he estado trabajando en modelos para optimizar esquemas de tamizaje de cáncer de mama en Chile. Participo en actividades docentes con alumnos del Magíster y Doctorado en Nutrición y Alimentos del INTA (tesistas y unidades de investigación) y dicto el curso de postgrado “Epidemiología de las Enfermedades Crónicas: Principio y Métodos”.
