Description of Research
|
Summary Statement of Research Interests
|
|
My research in cognitive neuroscience focuses on issues of social relationships, empathy, self, action perception and creativity. I use functional neuroimaging to examine the neural mechanisms that underlie our experience of resonating with other people and being aware of our selves.
