Graduated with a master’s degree in cognitive neuropsychology and neuroimaging, I joined the team since October 2023 as a PhD student, under the supervision of Dr. Géraldine Rauchs. My project aims at understanding the relationships between sleep quality, amyloid pathology and cognitive decline in the elderly, in order to identify sleep-related risk factors that could be addressed to delay the onset or slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. This project relies on the use of multimodal sleep assessment and neuroimaging techniques, including a new device called Somno-Art to assess sleep at home across multiple nights and amyloid PET imaging.
