Claudia Flores

I am a Spanish graduate with 10 years experience in clinical research at a public hospital, focusing on improving maternal and infant health. I aspire to further enhance my skills, knowledge, and experience so that I may help to increase health awareness and help improve access to health care for the whole community.
