Summary
Cesar Coelho is a postdoctoral fellow and cognitive/systems neuroscientist with eight years of experience applying brain imaging, experimental psychology, AI and advanced statistical modeling to questions of learning, memory and interoception. He leads and collaborates on multi-lab projects—from neonatal cognitive development and biofeedback-assisted breathwork interventions to chronic pain and alcohol-stress interactions—producing results under submission or in preparation for peer-reviewed journals. Trained in Brazil and as a visiting scholar at NYU, he combines wet-lab techniques, neuroimaging, and data science, and has supervised students while reviewing manuscripts and presenting broadly. Notably, he secured a major CNPq talent grant to develop research on interoception and mental health, reflecting an uncommon blend of funding success and translational focus. Based in São Paulo, he brings both technical depth and cross-cultural collaborative experience to interdisciplinary neuroscience problems.
