About

PhD in Informatics Engineering on Intelligent Systems: I developed novel strategies to improve the performance and generalisability of brain age models. I integrated the executive committee of neuromatch academy, an organisation which coordinates online summer schools for 3000+ students. I was an invited teacher assistant at the University of Coimbra.
