I am a postdoctoral researcher in cognitive neuroscience at Royal Holloway, University of London. I'm interested in how we experience time; why time sometimes flies by, yet other times drags by? Our brain creates an experience of time that does not mirror the elapsed time on the clock. I examine how our internal bodily signals, like the beating of the heart, cause the time to distort.

​

My PhD from University College London was about touch and how we piece together distinct inputs from the skin so that our experience of touched objects is unified rather than fragmented.

 

I'm also interested in attention, emotion and body perception, and embodiment. Specifically, how we engage our own internal body representation when trying to understand others.
