I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the National University of Córdoba (UNC) and I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Psychology at the same university, funded by a CONICET doctoral fellowship, under the supervision of José Ahumada and Pablo Barttfeld. My research project focuses on exploring the relationship between affect and rationality in decision-making, primarily working within the framework of the somatic marker hypothesis. My main research interests include decision-making under uncertainty, affective neuroscience, the study of emotions and their effects on cognitive and behavioral processes. Recently, I have also been exploring interoception from a predictive coding perspective.
