Additionally, her focus on processes of knowledge production, social memory, and collective processes converges in her diverse works.<\/p>\n<p>In her doctoral thesis, she conducted an analysis of various social and cultural transformations prevalent in our society, through an ethnography of alternative menstrual politics and cultures. These transformations encompass aspects related to corporality, health, gender and feminism configurations, consumer society, collective knowledge processes, and affects. She received the Micaela Portilla Award (UPV\/EHU) and the Extraordinary Doctorate Award (UPV\/EHU). This research led to the publication of the books <em>Sangre y Resistencia. <\/em><em>Pol\u00edticas y culturas alternativas de la menstruaci\u00f3n <\/em>(Bellaterra, 2023) and <em>Odolaren matxinadak. <\/em><em>Gorputza, politika eta afektuak <\/em>(2024, UPV\/EHU).<\/p>\n<p>She is currently involved in a research project focused on friendship \u201cDislocando las fronteras del conocimiento, el g\u00e9nero y el parentesco.
