• Senior Data Researcher - Neuroscience

  • Jul 2022 - Present

  * With focus on Machine Learning and AI methods, I’ve built the roadmap leading to automatic reports, indicative of cognitive activity and clinical states by finding the right features. * Create new higher-level features from complex multi-levels EEG signal and validate them as correlates of cognitive processes, abilities and clinical states;* Apply Machine Learning methods with Python for clustering analysis on complex multiple features data (seaborn, sklearn, DBSCAN, K-Means, UMAP); Show less

• Cognitive Science Researcher and Data Analysis

  • Jan 2020 - Jul 2022

  * Designed multiple international clinical studies on hundreds of patients and participants to scientifically validate the auditory assessment and device signal outputs;* Published peer-reviewed manuscripts (Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience and Frontiers in Neuroscience), and presented in international scientific conferences (Alzheimer’s association technology and dementia conference, ieee brain computer interface, Neuromusic). Won first prize in ieee LifeTech conference.* Built a roadmap of clinical and pivotal research to explore the ability of the device and signal processing to detect various cognitive states (high and low mental loads, work-load interruptions, resting state), and neurological disorders (cognitive decline, early detection of neurodegenerative disorders, Parkinson's disease, Minimal Consciousness States Disorders, Alzherimer’s, and Epilepsy).
