Dr. Violan focuses on health services research, which aims to help the clinical decision-making process, to improve healthcare and the healthcare system, to facilitate access and promote excellence in provision of services. Health services research provides the tools to the professionals involved in decision making for the evaluation of the impact that changes in the health system have on results, quality, access, cost and use of services.
Dr. Violan is part of a multidisciplinary team of general practitioners, epidemiologists, biostatisticians, economists, psychologists, nurses, physiotherapists and pharmacists, who jointly evaluate primary health care services. She is a member of the GRenSSAP group (Research Group in Health Services), accredited by the RETICS, within the redIAPP (RD06/0018/0000) (www.rediapp.org), and also accredited as an emergent group by the DURSI (Department of University, Research and Information Society) SGR 01468.
Currently, Dr. Violan leads three main areas of research: 1: Primary Care Systems of Information and Register to improve management and clinical practice; 2: Use of resources and services, variability in clinical practice and decision-making capacity in primary care based on information provided by the Information System for the Development of Research in Primary Care (SIDIAP) and other electronic register sources of primary care. Results of this research have already been published in more than 40 articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals; 3: Epidemiology of multimorbidity patterns and prevalence and determinants of multimorbidity (lifestyles, social inequality, use of health services, costs and treatments received) in the Spanish population. Currently, she is involved in 2 projects to study the longitudinal patterns of multimorbidity, funded by Spanish research agencies (PERIS SLT002 / 16/00058; FIS PI16 / 00639).

In her role as CEO of the IDIAPJGol, which currently has over 200 ongoing projects, Dr. Violan has acquired extensive experience in the management and coordination of research studies.
From 1993 to 2010, Dr. Violan was a member of the Advisory Committee of the journal Formación Médica Continuada en Atención Primaria (FMC). She is currently editor and reviewer of various publications such as Biomed Central Public Health and a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Comorbidity.
