My research lies at the intersection of biology, cognitive sciences, mathematics, and computation, with a focus on consciousness, computational neuroscience and open science. I leverage advanced tools from complexity science—network theory, information theory, and dynamical systems—to study the functional organization of the brain and its links to cognition, brain health and non-ordinary states of consciousness. I completed my education at the Universidad de Chile, earning a BSc in Biology (2009-2012) and an MSc in Biology with a neuroscience focus (2013-2016). My PhD in Biophysics and Computational Biology (2018-2022, Universidad de Valparaíso) was dedicated to building mechanistic frameworks linking whole-brain mathematical models to consciousness states, such as those induced by psychdelic drugs. In my first post-doc experience (UAI, Chile) I developed neuroimaging-based biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases based on brain high-order interactions. In my second post-doc (Paris Brain Institute, France) I studied the neural signatures underlying subjective-objective sleep discrepancy and found that this discrepancies can be highly attributed to the coexistence of both wake and sleep like brain activity during sleep. Currently, my research at the IFISC (Palma de Mallorca, Spain) investigates the neural mechanisms underlying the emergence of high-order behaviour in the brain.
