Research Interest
My research interests include attention, memory, language and speech, with a particular interest in how these processes unfold in time. In the B&C, I have and will continue to investigate how the brain flexibly and dynamically shifts attention to moments in time to perceive and produce temporally extended streams of stimuli. To this end, I combine behavioural tasks with fMRI, EEG, and/or MEG.
Prior Experience
I completed a BSc in Neuroscience at University College London (UCL; 2014-2017), followed by a Masters in Brain and Mind Sciences (2017-2019) at UCL, École Normale Supérieure (ENS) and Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC). In 2019, I was awarded with a Wellcome Trust Doctoral Studentship (2019-2023) thanks to which I completed a PhD in Neuroscience at the University of Oxford under the supervision of Prof Kia Nobre, Prof Kate Watkins and Dr Kerry Walker.
Personal Interests
Books, films, people, and food. Walking, wandering, and sometimes also running around.
