Research interests:

Assistant Professor at Instituto Superior Tecnico (IST)/University of Lisbon, and Researcher at the Institute for Systems and Robotics (ISR/LaSEEB). My research is focused on developing non-invasive EEG-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) systems integrated with virtual environments and robotic platforms to support neurorehabilitation for neurological and cardiovascular conditions. This work lies at the intersection of biomedical and computer engineering, focusing on enhancing brain-computer interaction for communication and control while also investigating brain recovery mechanisms. Finally, this work has gained international recognition through various awards, including the "Best Early Career Award" by the International Society for Virtual Rehabilitation (ISVR).
