Research areas

Research Interests

  • Multisensory Integration
  • Social Cognition
  • Disorders of social cognition (e.g., Autism)

Current Work

Using behavioural and neuroimaging methods, I investigate how signals from multiple sensory modalities are integrated in social attention and emotional expression recognition. I am also interested in how these processes may differ based on individual differences in anxiety and autism spectrum traits.
