Ana Pinheiro is Assistant Professor of Neuropsychology and Cognitive Psychology at the University of Lisbon, Portugal, and a board member of Scientific Reports.

Pinheiro’s research focuses on the mechanisms underlying neural processing of perception of voice and speech. A particularly productive research avenue for her lab has been the exploration of auditory hallucinations and their neuroanatomical correlates. Pinheiro’s lab has carried out impactful research into auditory recognition neural processes of hallucination-prone individuals. Additionally, her work exploring how auditory processing adapts to different conditions and changes through life has provided important insight into this field.

In recognition of the impactful work carried out across her yet short career, Ana Pinheiro has been awarded by, among others, the Schizophrenia International Research Society (Rising Star Award and Early Career Award) and the Portuguese Association of Psychology (Young Investigator Award).
