The major dedication in their academic life has three main anchors: training in psychology seeking to balance the innovative with the paths already well traveled in this area of science, with emphasis on the best methodologies to support the actions of the professional in the area in any field that choose. Another anchor refers to the necessary presence of Psychopathology in the field of Mental Health, based on the development of evaluation systems based on evidence and that can be accessible to professionals who work in health and educational systems. The third pillar refers to incorporating the study of Well-being in the daily view of Psychology, thus attending to Protective Factors. In these areas he has developed Evaluation Protocols and programmatic proposals at the undergraduate and postgraduate level, while exploring methodologies that make it possible to obtain better quality evidence.
