PhD Candidate in Medical Sciences
Hi, and thanks for stopping by! I’m a PhD candidate in Medical Sciences at the University of Brasília, researching the Neuroscience of Ageing (e.g., how the brain changes over time and how we can support its health). My work spans cognitive decline, sleep, and brain clearance systems, with a special focus on using data science, neuroimaging, and computational tools to reveal new insights. If you’re into ageing research, neuroscience, or science-meets-tech curiosity, you’re in the right place! 😉
Interests
- Cognitive ageing and dementia
- Glymphatic and brain clearance systems
- Data science and machine learning in neuroscience
- Translational neuroscience for healthy ageing
Methods
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging
- Computational modelling and data analysis
- Systematic reviews and meta-analytical methods
- Neurobiological markers of exercise-induced plasticity
Latest Research Outputs
