About

I am a PhD student in the Neuroscience of Perception and Action lab. Our project will explore joint action in music, focusing on the behavioral and neural analysis using different techniques, including motion capture and EEG. I have a broad range of research interests, from technological and computational methodologies, such as signal processing and machine learning, to cognitive neuroscience, namely musical perception, production and social interaction.

I have previously work on data analysis combining machine learning techniques with different biomedical signals and neuroimaging techniques, such as human micro-electrode recordings from Deep Brain Stimulation, electrocardiogram, MRI or CT, as well as mice behavioral analysis using Inertial Measurement Units.
