Sara Paula Signo Miguel

Sara Paula Signo Miguel is a Professor at Ramon Llull University's Blanquerna School of Psychology, Education and Sports Sciences, affiliated with the Department of Communication and Health. Her research focuses on neuropsychological assessment methodologies, cognitive interventions for neurodevelopmental and aging populations, and the application of digital technologies in healthcare. She is actively involved in multidisciplinary projects addressing healthy aging for adults with intellectual disabilities.

Key research areas include executive function evaluation in Down syndrome populations, music therapy applications for mild cognitive impairment, and machine learning approaches to predict cognitive outcomes. Her work integrates behavioral assessments with innovative digital solutions like gamified serious games to enhance neurocognitive training.

Miguel collaborates in several grants including the COMSAL research group (2022-2025) and the multi-phase HELP-ACTIVe projects (2020-2023) focused on digital interventions for intellectual disability communities. She has published impactful studies on cognitive assessment methodologies and their clinical applications, contributing to both peer-reviewed journals and systematic reviews.

Her academic contributions emphasize translational research bridging neuropsychology with technological innovation, aiming to improve quality of life for vulnerable populations through evidence-based interventions. Current efforts include predictive modeling of cognitive capacities using machine learning frameworks and evaluating music therapy efficacy in dementia care.
