Welcome

I am a cognitive neuroscientist at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig, Germany. I combine neuroimaging and neuromodulation methods with graph theory, large language models (LLMs), and behavioral modeling to explore cognitive changes across the adult lifespan.

I am particularly interested in the age-related changes in the trajectories of memory processes and their interaction with executive functions. I am also a strong supporter of open and reproducible research practices and strive to implement them in my own work.

📚 New article out in Brain & Language

We wrote an invited commentary on an overview paper by Billot & Kiran (Brain & Language, 2024), in which they discuss the role of homeostasis and Hebbian plasticity in aphasia recovery. We discuss the framework, its limitations, perspectives, and implications for non-invasive brain stimulation in aphasia recovery.
