During the early years of her professional career she created a group of young botanists, with professors and alumni, whose studies on a geobotanic interpretation of the forests of the Iberian Peninsula led to the publication of the book “Los bosques ibéricos” (literally, the forests from Iberia) in 1997. This creation, the result of two decades of work, would become a reference for the study of the local vegetation. She also co-authored other books as “Evolución y filogenia”.

From 1985 she collaborated in the Royal Society for Spanish Natural History, first as a librarian and later as organizer and speaker in conferences.
