Research Interests
As a cognitive neuroscientist I study the brain mechanisms underlying all cognitive domains, but my research focuses primarily on social cognition. Using various brain imaging techniques, I develop experimental paradigms to investigate the brain networks underlying socio-cognitive and -emotional behaviours (e.g., imitative tendancies, empathic expression). Currently I am developing experimental paradigms for "hyperscanning" studies – the simultaneous measurement of brain function from two interacting individuals. This allows me to explore the neural systems associated with social cognition as it unfolds during real social interaction.
