PhD in the Brain, Cognition and behavior program. Thesis title:
“Research of the cognitive and linguistic mechanisms preserved and
altered in aphasia”.
2017 – 2019 University of Barcelona (Barcelona, SPAIN). Collaboration in the research project: “Speech Segmentation in
Patients with Left Hemisphere Stroke: A Voxel Lesion-Symptom Mapping Study”. Main tasks: Preprocessing and analysis of neuroimaging (T1 and DTI) by implementation of Voxel-Lesion Symptom Mapping (VLSM) and deterministic tractography techniques.
2017 – 2018 University of Barcelona (Barcelona, SPAIN). Collaboration in the research project: “Tracking the Structural
Properties of the Arcuate Fasciculus in Simultaneous Interpreters”. Main tasks: Preprocessing and analysis of DTI data by implementation of deterministic tractography.
2016 – 2017 University of Barcelona (Barcelona, SPAIN). Collaboration in the research project: “Music-induced reward
responses are modulated by the dopaminergic system: a pharmacological study”. Main tasks: Recruitment of the participants, organization of the session schedules, administering the experimental tasks to the participants, preprocessing and analyzing of the collected data.
