Carolina Maruta

Assistant Professor

Bio

PhD in Biomedical Sciences (Neurosciences) by University of Lisbon. Invited assistant professor since 2018 at the Undergraduate Program in Psychology of the Faculty of Human Sciences. Involved in clinical activities (neuropsychology) at the Laboratory for Language Studies of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Lisbon since 2009 and, since 2011, at the CENC - Centro de Medicina do Sono. Between March and June 2013 she was a visiting researcher at the University College of London. Researcher at CRC-W. Main research areas include normal and pathological cognitive aging (dementia), and sleep and cognition. Author of several publications about neurocognitive/neurobehavioral manifestations following brain injury and cognitive aging/dementia.
