Maria Rubio Valera
Jefe de Grupo
María Rubio-Valera, Head of Quality and Patient Safety at the Parc Sanitari Sant Joan de Déu, is a graduate (2008) and a PhD (2012) in Pharmacy from the University of Barcelona. Since 2017, she jointly leads Evaluation of Health Technologies in Primary Care and Mental Health (PRISMA) group.
Between 2013 and 2019, she was an associate professor at the University of Barcelona and has given master classes at the University of Barcelona, the Pompeu Fabra University and the Autonomous University of Barcelona.
Her research focuses on the design and evaluation of health interventions using mixed methods. Specifically, it studies the magnitude and impact of health-related behaviors, such as adherence and health promotion activities, designing targeted interventions adapted to the patient's context to improve these behaviors and evaluating their effectiveness and cost-effectiveness.
In this line of work, in September 2020, she received a Starting Grant from the European Research Council (ERC), an entity that promotes the careers of young European researchers. This is the work "IMA-cRCT - Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the Initial Medication Adherence intervention: a randomised controlled trial and economic model".
