CHRISTIAN NAVARRO-TORRES PH.D.

Christian is a PhD cognitive scientist, with formal training in cognitive psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, and applied data analysis (click here for a copy of his CV).

Christian was fortunate enough to receive training in an academic environment that was highly interdisciplinary and conducive to community building and genuine collaboration.

In his view, these are the pillars of true scientific progress, and it is his hope that CIRS Lab will become a space that brings those pillars into the CIRS community.

As of today, Christian is an independent research consultant in the CIRS community, and am also the co-founder of CIRS Lab, which currently has the biggest Instagram platform devoted to educating broad audiences on the science and medical understanding behind CIRS. But long before that success, Christian was and has been a CIRS patient who, like many patients, felt demoralized, pathless, and hopeless.

Christian has made an incredible amount of progress to date but is still very much treating CIRS alongside a Bartonella infection.

Christian received CIRS Literacy award at CIRSx conference in 2024
