As a member of the Grup de Recerca en Educació, Didàctica i Aprenentatge (GREDA), her work focuses on early childhood education, mathematics pedagogy, and neuroeducation.

Research Interests: Her studies bridge neuroscience and educational practice, particularly in analyzing free play in infants (Obplay 9-36M tool), developing pedagogical frameworks for teaching multiplication, integrating music into mathematical learning, and enhancing teacher training through historical contexts. Collaborative projects like PSICOPERSONA highlight her interdisciplinary approach.

Recent Publications: Her 2023 work on history-informed mathematics teacher training and multiplication pedagogy tools demonstrates a focus on evidence-based educational strategies. Earlier studies (2021-2018) explore neurodevelopmental aspects of play, comparative educational systems, and reasoning in early childhood.

Projects: Active in AGAUR-funded initiatives such as GREDA (2022-2025) and PSICOPERSONA (2017-2021), addressing educational theory, child development, and community engagement.
