Research Interests
The part of the research that I love the most is that it allows us to improve our life in the future by developing new tools and knowledge that we can apply daily.
Considering that my field of interest is, among others, the part of psychology that is related to brain function, at this moment my research is focused on the characterization of the neuronal mechanisms that allow newborns to encode speech sounds by studying the auditory nervous system.
Knowing more about these processes would help us to develop new resources to detect future neurocognitive weakness since the first days of life in order to make the most of the period of great cerebral plasticity that the first years of life suppose.
