Differential functional regulation along the longitudinal hippocampal axis
We now know that the hippocampus is differentially regulated by subregions along its longitudinal axis, from dorsal to ventral poles in rodents, or in humans from…
“I was a student in the joint MD/PhD program of University of Minho (Braga, Portugal) and Columbia University (New York, USA) – PhD work developed at Columbia University. I continued my training in clinical research in the postgraduate program PCSRT from Harvard Medical School and as a postdoctoral fellow at University of Minho. I am an author in 7 publications (2017-2020), including in the high impact journals of Nature, Nature Neuroscience, Neuron and Nature Communications.
I am now an Assistant Professor of neuroanatomy in the School of Medicine of the University of Minho, a Principal Investigator in the associated laboratory ICVS and a Neuroradiology resident in Hospital de Braga. The project that I lead is aimed at studying social memory function and its neural correlates in multiple sclerosis (funded by Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia).
In recognition of my academic success, I have been awarded with various distinctions both in fundamental and clinical research, including with my preliminary work in multiple sclerosis.”

Various previous studies have shown that different neurodegenerative disorders differentially affect different brain regions. Here, we propose to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify multi-modal…
Cognitive deficits are common in MS but therapeutic options are lacking. Modafinil has been show to impact cognitive performance in some trials for MS-related fatigue, but it has a variable…
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system with a wide range of motor and sensory symptoms. Importantly, this disabling disease affects…
