His entire career has been devoted to the implementation and improvement of studies integrating a routine laboratory (screening and specific coagulation tests), as well as in the laboratory for genetic studies of congenital coagulopathies. Her main research activities have been the molecular diagnosis of haemophilia, von Willebrand’s disease, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and haemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). As coordinator of the UFHM, she implemented molecular studies by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), which allowed this approach 3 diagnostic areas Erythropathology, Thrombosis and Haemostasis, Microangiopathies and Haemato-Oncology.

The UFHM laboratory is considered a reference centre in clinical-laboratory studies that it investigates and receives samples from all over the country.
