Paola Cociancic is a Research Fellow in the Department of Pharmacy and Food Sciences at the Faculty of Pharmacy and Food Sciences, University of Valencia, specializing in Parasitology with a focus on intestinal parasitic infections in child and adolescent populations.

She earned her doctorate from Argentina's Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET) in 2019. Her dissertation examined environmental and socio-economic determinants of parasitic infection distribution among youth in Argentina, supervised by Dr. Graciela Teresa Navone and Dr. María Lorena Zonta.
