I am a postdoctoral researcher in philosophy of mind and cognitive science.
Areas of interest: Social cognition, joint attention, perception, multisensory processes, philosophy of cognitive science
I am working on:
I study how our perception of the world is influenced by others. In my research I combine tools from philosophy, experimental psychology and psychophysics.
I have worked on:
I obtained my PhD at the Graduate School of Systemic Neurosciences (GSN-LMU) and the Faculty of Philosophy, LMU Munich. In my doctoral project, I focused on the role of perceptual experience in joint attention, and on how different sense modalities are implicated during joint attention.

In this project, we propose that joint attention is a fundamentally multisensory phenomenon. We study how different senses shape joint attention and, conversely, how joint attention can affect perception across modalities.
