Eva Ferrer Vidal-Barraquer

I understand and advocate for a medicine in which physical activity is a therapeutic and preventive tool; an active lifestyle promotes health and wellbeing. That is why my work at the SJD Barcelona Children's Hospital is to seek synergies and help in those cases that require care support related to physical activity and sport. 

On a professional level, I work with amateur and professional athletes, in the latter case linked to the women's football team of FC Barcelona. My areas of interest are the promotion of health in the population and specifically in women. Women and sport, a really interesting binomial that we do not always have enough information to apply in the different stages of life that women go through throughout our lives.

I am currently doing my PhD on Football and Women's Health. I am collaborating with the Universitat Blanquerna-Ramón Llull as a teacher.
