My name is Rafael Lopes Cunha and I work as a research assistant at the Lifestyle Brain Interaction group.
For my internship, I contribute to studies on the effects of exogenous ketones on cognitive performance in older adults, and ketogenic diet in individuals with autism. I mainly focus on data collection and analysis.
 
I am pursuing a Research Master’s in Clinical and Health Psychology alongside a Master’s in Methodology and Statistics, with a strong interest in neuroscience. I am particularly interested in the intersection of mental and physical health, explored through different perspectives.  A specific interest of mine is neurodiversity and wellbeing. After my studies, I would like to continue working in these research fields.
 
Outside of university, you can often find me at the sports center or on the tennis court. When I am not there, I enjoy spending time with my friends, visiting museums, doing something creative or reading.
