Since 1994, she has participated as research member (and, sometimes, as responsible researcher) in more than 20 research projects in competitive calls. In particular, in several projects at national level, regional level, or supporting by the university. She has also participated in research contracts with several companies and institutions (Eroski, S.Coop., EUSTAT, LANTIK, ZIV among others).

She has participated in many national and international conferences and scientific meetings, presenting around about 80 contributions, some of them in invited sessions. In relation to mobility and collaborations with researchers from other universities, she maintains collaboration relationships with faculties from different, national (U. Complutense de Madrid, U. Miguel Hernández, U. Rey Juan Carlos (URJC)) and, international universities. In 2009, she participated in an interuniversity international collaboration project (URJC, NTNU, UPV/EHU) and, in particular, with the research team of prof. Asgeir Tomasgard, from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim, Norway.

Between January 2017 and January 2021, she held a position in the management of her university as Vice-chancellor of Undergraduate and Graduate Studies.
