Clara Gallay

I am a PhD student at the BarcelonaBeta Brain Research Center, a research center located in Barcelona which focuses on investigating neurodegenerative diseases. My project examines the impact of female reproductive history on Alzheimer’s disease risk and trajectory. I am particularly interested in understanding how pregnancy and childbirth can interact with cerebrovascular health to provoke lasting changes, and influence brain ageing post menopause.
