Anastasiia Mikhailova

phd student

I joined Memory and Language team in 2018, and I am currently a PhD student in Computer and Electric Engineering program at Instituto Superior Técnico Universidade de Lisboa (funded by FCT) and a member in the project ‘LOSTME – In Search of Lost Memory: Experimental Evidences and Computational Models of Visual Memory in Healthy and Neuro-Degenerate Ageing’ by Dr Moreno Coco and Dr Ana Luisa Raposo.

My work consists of developing computational model of long-term visual memory for naturalistic scenes that can be used for early diagnostics of pathological ageing like Alzheimer’s disease.

In my work I use such methods as EEG, eye-tracking, computer vision technologies and neural networks. My other research interests are in the field of pupillometry and low- versus high-level image properties as predictors of memory.

Before joining the Memory and Language team, I completed MSc in Cognitive Science at Ruhr- Universität Bochum (Germany) and my BSc in Psychology at Saint Petersburg University (Russia).

In my personal life, I enjoy art and gardening.
