Predoctoral researcher
Pathological aging
After graduating in Psychology from the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM), she specialized in Clinical Neuroscience at the same institution (Master’s degree in Neuroscience, UCM). She is also certified in General Health Psychology by UCM. During her undergraduate studies, she was actively involved in research and teaching activities, which led her to receive the 2020/2021 Collaboration Grant awarded by the Spanish Ministry of Education and Vocational Training.
She is currently pursuing a PhD at the Faculty of Psychology at UCM under the supervision of Fernando Maestú, funded by a predoctoral research training contract (FPI) since 2023. Her research focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of a combined intervention using non-invasive brain stimulation (tACS) and cognitive training in individuals at risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
Her main research interest lies in identifying early cognitive and behavioral markers during the preclinical and prodromal stages of Alzheimer’s disease, as well as analyzing their relationship with the initial structural and functional changes in the brain. Her approach integrates the joint assessment of cognitive and neurobiological markers with the goal of improving prognosis and expanding intervention opportunities before the disease reaches a clinically significant stage.
