Dr. González Garrido earned his M.D. and a specialty in Neurophysiology from the University of Havana, Cuba, and later completed a Master’s in Medical Sciences and a Ph.D. at the University of Guadalajara, Mexico. He has directed the Clinical Neurophysiology Laboratory at the Neuroscience Institute of the University of Guadalajara since 2000. His academic output includes two books, 19 book chapters, 123 peer-reviewed publications, and the supervision of 46 graduate theses. He also served as Guest Editor—together with Prof. John Polich—of a 2009 Special Issue of the International Journal of Psychophysiology. His current research focuses on the neurobiological substrates of information processing, particularly attention and working memory, the role of emotional valence, and how processing strategies adapt to factors such as resource availability, developmental maturity, individual abilities, environmental interference, and sex differences. His laboratory also investigates how these processes are altered in conditions affecting early neurodevelopment, including Type 1 Diabetes. Their work integrates behavioral methods, electrophysiology (ERPs and quantitative EEG), and high-resolution structural and functional MRI during both task performance and resting states.
