On the other hand, her great motivation to generate and seek opportunities on her own is evident. In particular, she is CEO of two platforms that seek to eventually become startups: "Neurofilia", a platform that seeks to combat, through education based on evidence and innovation, the neurophobia generated in medical students. At the same time, she is CEO of "Socratech", an ambitious project that seeks to generate a space for training and democratization of the available evidence on evidence-based education, as well as possible uses of AIs for university teaching. At our event, she hopes to present the state of the art of advances in Latin America on the diagnosis, treatment and epidemiology of dementia.
