I am a master’s student in Physical Therapy, deeply passionate about understanding pain in all its forms and causes. My interest has led me to study the mechanisms of traumatic and chronic pain, particularly lower back pain, which significantly affects daily life. I focus on applying Pain Neuroscience Education to empower patients, reduce disability, and decrease fear of movement. My goal is to integrate scientific knowledge with clinical practice to improve patient outcomes and promote evidence-based rehabilitation.

My main research area focuses on physical therapy, specifically on evaluating and developing interventions to improve functional mobility, reduce pain, and enhance quality of life for patients with musculoskeletal and neurological disorders. I am particularly interested in evidence-based rehabilitation strategies, patient-centered care, and the role of exercise therapy in recovery. My research aims to integrate clinical practice with scientific insights to optimize outcomes, empower patients, and contribute to the advancement of physiotherapy knowledge and techniques.

I am a Registered Nurse and Midwife interested in chronic disease management, especially non-communicable diseases. I am also interested in acute care, trauma, clinical care processes and outcomes, public health, nursing in general, healthcare education, symptom management, patient involvement, patient support, healthcare technologies, and quality improvement in healthcare.

I am interested in the neurocomputational mechanism of touch, temperature and pain perception in physiological and pathological conditions. To probe them, I use a combination of psychophysics, EEG and fMRI combined with computational modelling.
