Soy médico veterinario de la Universidad de Chile, y doctorado en Ciencias Comparativas Biomédicas de la Universidad de Wisconsin-Madison. Mi línea de investigación se relaciona principalmente con la vigilancia y caracterización de virus Influenza A (gripe) en aves silvestres, cerdos y gallinas. Entre mis estudios destacan la caracterización de la influenza aviar en aves silvestres en Chile y su presentación en aves de corral tanto en Chile como en Colombia. Además, extiendo esta área de investigación hacia los animales de compañía, como perros y gatos, que también son susceptibles a Influenza A.
