@marcorosata
Aspiring neuroscientist with a passion for AI and research.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and innovative professional currently based in Nijmegen, Netherlands, with a strong background in cognitive psychology and neuroscience. My journey has led me to co-found Empathy AI, where we are developing a smartphone application for depression recognition, supported by a startup voucher from Radboud University. I thrive in dynamic environments, leveraging my skills in strategic planning and management to drive projects forward.
In addition to my entrepreneurial pursuits, I have gained valuable experience as a research intern at the Donders Centre for Neuroscience, where I model brain organoids to study developmental disorders. My technical expertise includes maintaining iPSC lines, performing statistical analyses, and utilizing machine learning for data interpretation. I am passionate about fostering collaboration and continuous improvement in all my endeavors, whether in research or restaurant management.
