After graduating in cognitive neurosciences (psychology), he developed clinical activity in the cognitive rehabilitation department of San Raffaele Hospital in Milan as a neuropsychologist.

He subsequently completed his PhD in Biomedicine at Pompeu Fabra University, under the supervision of Professor Albert Costa and Professor Marco Calabria, investigating the mechanisms of lexical access in bilinguals, their relationship with executive control mechanisms and the possible role of bilingualism as a cognitive reserve factor in normal and pathological aging.

The results of his research contributed to "Language specific" models of lexical access in bilinguals and to a better understanding of the role of bilingualism as a protective factor in aging.

After completing his PhD, his research has focused on studying how different lifestyles (physical activity, nutrition, cognitive activity, sleep, socialization, etc.), psychological characteristics and their interaction with biology, can promote brain health and help prevent the development of neurological and psychiatric pathologies.

All this research activity has been carried out within the framework of the Barcelona Brain Health Initiative study, of which he has been scientific coordinator and Chief Data Scientist for the last 6 years (with a total funding of €5M).

He is an adjunct professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona and the Open University of Catalonia. He has directed numerous master's theses and two doctoral theses completed with "cum laude"; he is currently directing two more. He has been a visiting researcher at the Berenson Allen Center for Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation at Harvard Medical School and at the University of Siena, in the Siena Brain Investigation and Neuromodulation Lab.

He has been invited as a speaker at important national and international conferences and is a reviewer for relevant scientific journals, such as Frontiers in Psychology, Journal of Neurolinguistics, Journal of Applied Psycholinguistics, among others.

He is the author of more than 30 publications in scientific journals in the last 5 years. In parallel to his research activity, he has tried to disseminate science in events for non-experts, participating in radio programmes and being interviewed by various local and national newspapers.

He is currently the principal investigator of a project funded by the Fundación la Marató de TV3, a project funded by the Ministry of Science and Innovation and a project funded by the Alzheimer Drug Discovery Foundation.
