Master's Degree in Research in Behavior and Cognition, UNIVERSITY OF BARCELONA
Graduated in Psychology, UNIVERSITY OF BARCELONA
Final-year PhD student in cognitive neuroscience and experimental psychology with a strong focus on auditory perception, particularly speech. His research interests revolve around the cognitive and neurobiological processes that shape the perception of complex auditory stimuli, with an emphasis on how brain function, in combination with experience, influences auditory perception. He has wide experience working with electrophysiological techniques such as EEG, having conducted research on speech encoding in neonates and infants. As a PhD student, he has worked on fMRI and behavioral studies investigating how speaker familiarity influences speech perception and the contribution of voice processing to non-native phoneme learning.
