About me
Dr. Cristina García de la Mària is a researcher at IDIBAPS and has been the coordinator of the Experimental Endocarditis Laboratory for the last eighteen years. Together with the rest of the experimental endocarditis laboratory team, she conducts and carries out the in vitro and in vivo studies of the different models described in the group's lines of research. It is also responsible for the direction and training in the laboratory of master's and predoctoral students as well as researchers on postdoctoral stays. She has published 68 articles in peer review journals and coordinates the Work in Progress and Journal Club weekly sessions of the Endocarditis Team.
