My name es Cristina López Espada. I live in Granada (Spain) where I work as Vascular Surgeon Consultant at the University Hospital Virgen de las Nieves for the last 20 years. Together with my clinical surgical practice I am interested in Health Quality, surgical outcomes and devices surveillance within our specialty. I've been the leader of the Spanish Vascular Quality group for 10 years and the Endovascular Quality Research Group for the Spanish Society of Vascular Surgery. At the moment, I enjoy taken part in the VASCUNET committee of the ESVS, where I try to add my experience and efforts to improve and develop our strong and useful quality international research network for the interest of all vascular patients.
