PhD Cognitive Neuroscience Consultant | Multilingual Neuromarketing & Data Analytics Expert (EN/FR/PT)

Profile Summary

I am a Cognitive Neuroscience PhD and independent Consultant specializing in high-level scientific literature reviews, evidence synthesis, and advanced neuromarketing data analysis across the healthcare, corporate, and behavioral science sectors. Operating fluently in English, French, and Portuguese, my expertise lies in systematically searching, analyzing, and distilling high-volume international clinical, neuroimaging, and behavioral data into boardroom-ready, strategic insights. My core freelance services bridge the gap between hard science and commercial objectives through three dedicated offerings: 1. Neuromarketing & Neuroimaging Data Analysis • Scope: Preprocessing, analyzing, and interpreting complex consumer behavior datasets. Translating raw neuroimaging outcomes (fMRI, EEG, MEG) and biometric metrics into data-driven consumer attention heatmaps, emotional arousal graphs, and cognitive workload metrics. • Delivery: 2 to 3 weeks minimum (Subject to discussion based on dataset volume and pipeline complexity). 2. Multilingual Literature Reviews & Evidence Synthesis • Scope: Executing bias-free systematic and scoping bibliographical queries across international databases in English, French, and Portuguese to evaluate data validity and map clinical or market research gaps. • Delivery: 3 to 4 weeks minimum (Subject to discussion depending on the number of databases and volume of abstracts to screen). 3. Executive Reporting & Technical Writing • Scope: Transforming dense neuroscientific, biomedical, or psychological evidence and technical datasets into highly structured corporate summaries, market intelligence white papers, and investor pitch-deck validations. • Delivery: 1 to 2 weeks minimum (Subject to discussion based on document length and target audience depth). Cost-Efficient & Secure Infrastructure: To optimize overhead costs for my clients, my analysis pipelines are built entirely on a modern, open-source Python ecosystem and compiled standalone suites, eliminating the need for expensive proprietary software licenses (such as MATLAB). Furthermore, I operate under a strict "Zero-Data Extraction" model: all raw, confidential datasets remain 100% local and offline on my secure machines, using AI assistance solely for abstract code architecture and pipeline optimization.
