About me

I am a researcher hoping to understand the cognitive abilities that allow us to make sense of the world around us.

My main interest is to understand how learning occurs in humans, and how it is mediated by neural plasticity and the interaction between neuronal networks. As such, I am deeply interested in understanding how our brains and behavior change when we learn new information, from the moment we encounter it to when we are skilled enough to creatively manipulate it in different contexts.

I have explored topics such as attention, short-term memory consolidation, learning, and auditory expectations, using behavioral experiments.
