Professor of Statistics at the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC). Promoter of Biostatech, a spin-off that emerged from the multidisciplinary group GRIDECMB, of which she was Principal Investigator.
Her extensive experience in teaching and research was evident in her extensive CV, with more than two hundred international publications in high-impact journals in different areas of knowledge and her leadership and participation in numerous research projects.
She was the Principal Investigator of the National Biostatistics Network (BIOSTATNET) and director of the Interdisciplinary Center of Biostatistics (ICBUSC). She chaired the Scientific Committee of Biostatech since its creation, which is responsible for supervising the methodological and statistical basis with which the work carried out through the company is developed and the quality of the final results.
A driving force and defender of the structuring of interdisciplinary teams, throughout her long career she has been able to make biostatistics understood and to promote it as an essential tool when it comes to providing high-quality scientific solutions in multiple areas of knowledge, especially in biomedicine.
Biostatech is and will always be part of her legacy. D.E.P.
