She is member of the "European Association of Global Bioethics", and was selected at international level for the I International Seminar on Bioethics (Lisbon), organized by the universities of Iowa and Lisbon.
As forensic entomologist, she is one of the most brilliant experts and not only at national level; she has been recently interviewed by TV3 regarding this specific field of work (http://www.tv3.cat/videos/1178519).
Dr. Saloņa has collaborated with us several times, and whenever we asked for, as in I CIPLAE, with the paper: Introduction to Bioethics applied to experiments with animals in Life Sciences, or during the I International Forum for Animals, chairing a round table on vivisection with Dr. Katy Taylor (BUAV), Dr. Marc Bekoff, Dr. Antoine F.
