About
I am a cognitive neuroscientist in the Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience research group in the Department of Psychology, Institute of Population Health. I received my PhD from the Center for Mind and Brain Sciences (CIMeC) via the University of Trento in Italy. After completing a doctoral thesis on the behavioral and neural mechanisms of preparatory attention for visual search, I moved on to research on mental imagery and anomalous perception during my time as a postdoctoral researcher at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg in Germany. There, I developed the 'Ganzflicker', a tool I use to investigate hallucinations, altered states of consciousness, and individual differences in mental imagery.
