Carla uses her strengths in organization and forward thinking to tackle challenges and untangle the unknown, providing a systemic overview. She considers all stakeholders’ needs to assess the impact of a health technology, not only in clinical and economic terms, but also taking social, organizational, and ethical perspectives. To help her do this, Carla has built a network by collaborating with several Interest Groups at Health Technology Assessment International (HTAi), HITAP Thailand, and public hospitals in Spain. Carla has a vibrant personality mixing a unique cross-section of experiences from living in Barcelona, Malaysia, Thailand, and now Germany where you might meet her hiking or enjoying music festivals.
