I am an expert in Child Neuropsychology and I work as a consultant in the Neurology Department at SJD Barcelona Children’s Hospital and in the School Learning Disorders Unit (UTAE). My main lines of work are the diagnosis and management of school learning disabilities (dyslexia, ADHD, dyscalculia), neuropsychological study and rehabilitation programmes for children with Acquired Brain Injury (ABI, TBI, epilepsy, etc). I actively participate in teaching activities and workshops to improve the schooling of children with learning differences.
