Jose Aravena Castro

I am a Chilean PhD student interested in aging and mental health topics. Specifically, I am involved in projects related to: 1) the evaluation and design of treatments to improve healthy longevity outcomes in people with dementia and mental health conditions, with a special focus on non-pharmacological interventions, 2) understand the effect of social determinants of health in cognitive aging and treatments outcomes in older adults.

 

Most of this research is focused on Chile, in contexts related to public health entities such as the National Plan for dementia Care in this country.
