Lucia B Palmero
Assistant Professor. Department of Basic Psychology, Faculty of Psychology and Speech Therapy. · University of Valencia
Research Interests
Memory, Working Memory, Attention, Cognitive Neuroscience, Psychoneuroendocrinology
Biography
Her research focuses on cognitive neuroscience, with a particular interest in attention and memory processes, especially working memory, sustained attention, and vigilance mechanisms (arousal and executive). She combines electrophysiological measures (EEG/ERP) with non-invasive brain stimulation techniques (TMS, tDCS, tACS). In addition, she participates in research lines examining the impact of circadian rhythms on cognitive performance and in applied studies involving simulated driving contexts, as well as experiments aimed at understanding basic cognitive processes. She collaborates with prestigious international research groups, including the Leibniz Research Centre for Working Environment and Human Factors (Dortmund, Germany) and the University of Michigan (USA).
