Research areas

I am generally interested in object representation. I am currently working on Object vision and population code representation in collaboration with Dr. Nikolaus Kriegeskorte.

During my PhD at the University of Glasgow, I investigated the neural correlates involved in voice and voice gender perception under the supervision of Professor Pascal Belin.
