I am a Ph.D. student of the Doctoral Program in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Coimbra (Portugal), supported by Siemens Healthineers. My research is about the exploration of sensory perception in the human body, namely in patients with phantom limb pain. When I need a break from academic papers, I'm delving into thrilling mysteries or any book that piques my interest. On the flip side, I'm a die-hard dog lover. My furry companions bring a different kind of joy to my life. So, that's me in a nutshell – a PhD student with an unquenchable curiosity, a love for dogs, and a never-ending appetite for good books.
