Jordi Riera

I’m Jordi Riera, adult critical care physician at the Vall d’Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona, Spain. I’m the adult ECMO Program Director at this institution and tutor of ICU residents. I’m part of the EuroELSO Steering Committee & Chair of the Working Group on Infections in ECLS. I’m also part of the ELSO Research Committee & Scientific Oversight Committee.
PhD (cum laude & extraordinary award at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) and PI of several investigations on ECMO, lung transplant and respiratory infectious diseases (ORCID: 0000-0002-1738-4448).
Director of several national & international ECMO SIM-based training courses and scientific leader of the development of the Hybrids-Vita ECMO simulator (https://hybrids-vita.com/).
I think our critically ill patients deserve the best care we can offer. To achieve this, we need solid training, well-coordinated worldwide collaboration and high-quality research.
