About me

I am a PhD student in the Neuroimaging group in the Division of Clinical Geriatrics led by Eric Westman. I have a background in Psychobiology and Cognitive Neuroscience with a specialisation in Plasticity and Memory. I previously investigated fitness-induced plasticity in the brain and I worked in clinics with dementia patients.

Research description

I work on AD subtyping and treatments with neuroimaging markers. The main goals are to translate AD subtyping methods to preclinical and prodromal stages as well as monitoring the effects of pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions at both the neural and cognitive level.
