Biography
I obtained a Bachelor of Biology and a Master in Systems Physiology at the University of Havana, Cuba. Before commencing my PhD at Macquarie University, I worked as a research associate in the Speech and Hearing Department at the Neuroscience Cuban Centre (CNEURO) where I learnt all about objective measures to assess hearing function.
I’m currently a postdoctoral fellow at Macquarie University and I’m interested in multi-technique approaches to investigate how the auditory brain receives and sends information across the CNS in human listeners, ultimately leading to auditory and speech perception.
