    I'm a Juan de la Cierva Postdoctoral Researcher at the University Pompeu Fabra, working as part of INACT (Inner Speech in Action) research group. Prior to this, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Humanities (University of Edinburgh) and a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Centre for Philosophical Psychology (University of Antwerp). My academic background includes a BA(Hons) in Psychology and an MSc in Cognitive Science, both from the University of Barcelona. I completed my MPhil and PhD in Philosophy at the University of Glasgow.

    My research aims to provide a clearer understanding of the nature of consciousness by examining the phenomenology of altered states of consciousness across sleep and wakefulness. In recent years, I have been more focused on investigating the links between disordered thoughts, imagination, and dreaming.
