About me

  • My research at Karolinska Institutet focuses on human olfactory and visual perception and cognition, using behavioural, physiological, and brain imaging methods. I manage all steps of research projects from study design, ethical approval and data collection to statistical analysis of big data sets, scientific writing, and publishing.

    I also teach at the Psychology program, and manage/teach freestanding courses, as well as supervise student projects. With a PhD in Neuroscience from EPFL and a Master's degree in Engineering Physics from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, I have a strong interdisciplinary background that enables me to answer neuroscience questions using computational methods.
