Who Am I

I studied my B.Sc. in Language and Hispanic Literature at the Faculty of Philosophy in the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM). Currently, I am about to graduate from my master in Sciences in the field of Computational Modelling and Scientific Computation (MCCC) at the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos (UAEM).

I actively collaborate with the Psycholinguistic Lab, Faculty of Psychology, UNAM, and the Cognitive and Language Development Lab, Faculty of Psychology, UNAM. Currently, I am a member of the Cognitive Robotics Lab, UAEM where I studied language multimodal perception and the emergence of the McGurk Effect.

My research interest includes Language Perception, Language Acquisition, Language Development, Embodied Cognition, Developmental Robotics, and Cognitive Modelling. I am especially interested in General Domain mechanisms as self-organization and statistical learning as operational mechanisms to explain both language and cognition in children and adults.
