Defensa de la Tesis Doctoral titulada “Functional and Structural MRI Analysis of the Brain Effects of Sahaja Yoga Meditation“, (en español: Analisis funcional y estructural mediante Imágenes de Resonancia Magnética de los efectos en el cerebro de la meditación de Sahaja Yoga). El acto tuvo lugar en el salón de grados de la Escuela Superior de Ingeniería y Tecnología de la Universidad de La Laguna (ULL) en Tenerife.
Breve resumen sobre la tesis:
El autor Oscar Pérez trabajó durante 4 años para la realización de esta tesis doctoral bajo la coordinación de los profesores Sergio Elías Hernández Alonso de la ULL y, Alfonso Barros Loscertales de la Universidad Jaume I de Castellón.
En la tesis empleó un enfoque multimetodológico, basado en estudios registrados en el escáner de resonancia para investigaciones biomédicas de la ULL, para investigar los efectos neuronales de la Meditación Sahaja Yoga, revelando modificaciones en la conectividad funcional y estructural de regiones cerebrales clave, como la corteza cingulada anterior y la ínsula, que están asociadas con la mejora del control inhibitorio, la regulación emocional y la atención. Los resultados de la tesis aparecen en dos artículos científicos ya publicados y, un tercero en proceso de publicación.
La exposición y la memoria de la tesis fue evaluada por un tribunal compuesto por 3 profesores: la profesora Lejla de la Universidad de Jena, Alemanía; la profesora María Picó, de la Universidad Jaume I de Castellón; y el profesor Leopoldo Acosta, de la ULL. Este tribunal calificó la tesis con sobresaliente cum laude.

Brief summary of the thesis:
The author Oscar Pérez, worked for 4 years to complete this doctoral thesis under the coordination of professors Sergio Elías Hernández Alonso from the ULL and Alfonso Barros Loscertales from the Jaume I University of Castellón.
This thesis used a multi-methodological approach, based on studies recorded in the resonance scanner for biomedical research at ULL, to investigate the neuronal effects of Sahaja Yoga Meditation, revealing modifications in the functional and structural connectivity of key brain regions, such as the anterior cingulate cortex and the insula, which are associated with improved inhibitory control, emotional regulation and attention. The results of the thesis appear in two scientific articles already published and a third in the process of publication.
The presentation and thesis report were evaluated by a panel composed of 3 professors: Professor Lejla from the University of Jena, Germany; Professor María Picó, from the Jaume I University of Castellón; and Professor Leopoldo Acosta, from ULL. This panel awarded the thesis with outstanding cum laude.
