Research
Research interests
My research interests are broadly based on social cognitive neuroscience, particularly within the following areas:
- Emotion processing of faces (e.g. experience and recognition)
- Embodied cognition (e.g. empathy, mirror neuron system, emotional simulation and sensorimotor oscillations)
- Formation and maintenance of social groups (e.g. ingroup versus outgroup status)
- Clinical (e.g. mood disorders) and non-clinical individual differences (e.g. personality traits)
- Social identity (e.g. race, sex, gender, social class and popular culture representation)
