My research interests lie in social perception and understanding how we perceive and interpret behaviour of other people in the real world. More specifically, I am interested in how our judgments of actions, emotional states and intentions of other individuals are influenced by internal and external factors such as changes across lifespan or menstrual cycle or our prior visual context. I am also interested in how the visual system processes faces, bodies and body actions and how adaptive processes can inform us about the mechanisms underlying processing of social stimuli.
I am currently working on the SPiEs project, where I manage patient and volunteer's booking and day-to-day running of the project.
