My main interest is the human brain function, and more precisely, its relation with factors as sleep. I have a great interest in exploring how sleep problems may be associated with brain morphology and genetics, across age. Furthermore, this information can lead new research on the association between sleep and neurodegenerations, especially dementia in older adults.
