I got the Degree of Medical Doctor (MD) in Santiago de Cuba Medical School in 1997, and specialized in Neurology at the National Institute of Neurology and Neurosurgery of Havana in 2002. I was awarded a Japanese Government (MONBUKAGAKUSHO) scholarship for training in clinical magnetoencephalography (MEG) research and for doctorate studies at Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, Japan in 2005. I got a PhD degree in neuroscience in 2010. After that, I worked at the EuroEspes Biomedical Research Center in Corunna, where I acted as postdoctoral fellow and director of digital diagnosis (Electroencephalography - EEG, Optical Topography, Transcranial Doppler). Currently, I am a senior researcher at the Laboratory of Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience. My research interests include brain dysfunction in neuropsychiatric disorders such as epilepsy, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, and schizophrenia, as well as clinical neuroimaging using MRI and neurophysiological techniques, in particular MEG and EEG.
