Pablo is directly involved in the development, leadership, and sustainability of several ongoing research activities building cross-collaborations and bridges with peers in national and international fields. Pablo is WP lead/co-lead in 6 EU-funded projects (Horizon Europe, COST Action, and ERASMUS+) in Portugal. He has coordinated, as Principal and Co-PI, more than fifteen competitive projects in Spain, Canada and Portugal. As part of his regular work, he has participated in the writing of competitive grant applications either as principal investigator or work package leader/co-leader, and also in attracting funding from the pharmaceutical industry.
His research combines the areas of health services research (e.g., outcomes research, comparative effectiveness research and evaluation), implementation science, research ethics and palliative care; establishing micro-meso-macro linkages with justice and inequities. His background in health policy, management and evaluation allows him to bring together management, economics, policy and healthcare research, combining an understanding of the healthcare system mandate with business structures and processes to make healthcare organizations and systems more effective, efficient, ethical and sustainable.
Throughout Pablo’s career, working with individuals and teams who had real-world experience as himself, he developed the expertise to fully realize the potential of new knowledge embedded in research to improve health programs, clinical practice, outcome measurement and performance, quality initiatives, and provide quality data and information to inform policies. The overarching aim of Pablo’s work is to develop a cadre of scientifically-informed humanists and humanistically-informed scientists, professionals, citizens and societies.
