Professional experience

Research experience:
Collaboration with the Brainlab, a cognitive neuroscience research group from the University of Barcelona and with the Hospital Sant Joan de Deu (2019 – 2020).
As part of Dr. Carles Escera’s team, I undertook a project which sought to characterize the functional maturation of the auditory system during the first 6 months of postnatal life. Said functional maturation was studied using the Frequency Following Response, an Auditory Evoked Potential. I reviewed the pertinent literature, participated in the data acquisition procedures, conducted the processing and analysis of the data and collaborated in its interpretation. This project constitutes my master’s thesis and allowed me to develop a manuscript which shall be submitted for publication to the journal Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience.
Collaboration with the Brainlab and with the Hospital Sant Joan de Deu (2018 – 2019). Under the supervision of Dr. Carles Escera, I participated in a project which explored the possibility that the prenatal functional development of the auditory system could
be influenced by varying degrees of musical exposure during the gestational period.
This was studied by employing an electrophysiological measure: the Frequency Following Response. I conducted a review of the pertinent literature, participated in the data acquisition procedures, carried out the pertinent statistical tests and participated
in the interpretation of the results.
