Understanding how the brain processes information and generates constant predictions about its internal state to adapt and survive is the driving force of my research. As a Biochemist by training, I am fascinated by the molecular symphony that dictates our behavior and how it is reshaped by complex physiological changes. Currently, I am pursuing my PhD in the Neuronal Control of Metabolism group at IDIBAPS, under the supervision of Roberta Haddad and Marc Claret. My research aims to decipher how ovarian hormones reprogram dopaminergic circuits, specifically D2 expressing neurons in the nucleus accumbens, to modulate feeding behavior across different physiological states. To address this, I have developed a multiscale experimental framework that connects molecular identity with whole brai
