Médico cirujano y psicólogo clínico, especialista en neurociencias clínicas, Máster en Salud Mental (mención neurotoxicología). Actualmente es candidato al Doctorado en Salud, Psicología y Psiquiatría por la Universidad de Almería, España. Se ha formado en neurociencias clínicas y cognitivas en instituciones internacionales, entre ellas: University of Illlinois (EEUU), University of Edinburgh (Escocia) y Universidad de Almería (España). Desde el año 2002 se ha desempeñado como clínico en la valoración, diagnóstico, rehabilitación y tratamiento de alteraciones cognitivas, emocionales y conductuales secundarias o vinculadas a patologías neurológicas de base. En la actualidad tiene su práctica clínica en la ciudad de Mexico y en línea y trabaja en la industria farmacéutica en areas medicas de alta especialidad. Sus intereses actuales giran en torno al escepticismo científico, el pensamiento crítico, el uso de las neurociencias en temas de la vida cotidiana, los sesgos cognitivos como elementos terapéuticos, y el uso de psicodélicos y neuroestimulación como potenciales herramientas terapéuticas.
He progresivamente cambiado mi perspectiva sobre esta práctica en los últimos 25 años hasta mi enfoque actual: basado en evidencia, cognitivo - conductual, centrado en el análisis de los sesgos cognitivos que subyacen a las ideas irracionales (heurísticos)
