I am mainly interested in data analysis and predictive modeling with an emphasis on data driven techniques.
I have moved various fields starting with a bachelors’ degree in Electronics Engineering, a masters’ in Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Systems and a PhD in Bioinformatics. In this postdoctoral work I am investigating neurological aspects of human behavior and cognition with the help of fMRI. I am working at the crossroads between psychology and computational analysis where I hope to add some value using my previous experience.
