Ignasi Rodríguez graduated in Veterinary Medicine in 2003 at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, ​​being the first of its class. Shortly after finishing the degree he combined his work as a general practitioner with the studies of the prestigious Master in Assisted Reproduction at the Institut Universitari Dexeus. Dr. Rodríguez continued his career by starting a PhD at the Center for Regenerative Medicine in Barcelona in the field of stem cells and regenerative medicine where he published more than 12 scientific articles in the most prestigious journals in the world, such as Nature. After completing his PhD with honours (cum laude), Ignasi returns to the field of veterinary medicine while preparing his trip to the United Kingdom where he will train to become a specialist in Oncology. In 2014 he moved to London to do an oncology internship at the Royal Veterinary College. During the first year, Ignasi obtained a position as a resident in Oncology in the same institution under the tutelage of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM). After passing the exams in the first call in July 2018, he obtained his ACVIM certificate in Veterinary Oncology, of great international prestige.
