With a diverse background spanning health sciences, computer science, and mathematics, I am currently a full-time researcher at the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data applied to Neurology at Ace Alzheimer Center. Additionally, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering at the Department of Computer Architecture and Automatics at the Complutense University of Madrid. Within Ace, my primary research area centers on the development of Artificial Intelligence models for the analysis of spontaneous speech in the context of Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, my doctoral thesis is dedicated to the application and implementation of innovative computational approaches grounded in Deep Learning techniques for modeling neurodegenerative diseases using brain imaging data. My experience encompasses the development of Artificial Intelligence projects, including the creation of automatic diagnostic models based on neuropsychological and brain metabolism data, the integration of Machine Learning models for financial decision-making, the design of novel algorithms for investigating brain connectivity, and the modeling of longitudinal data for predicting brain hypometabolism.
