PhD student with a focus on environmental neuroscience @ScanUnit @univienna • specializing in pain and restorative environments research

Vienna
Joined June 2023
I had the pleasure of writing a chapter with @KuehnSim, @SSudimac, and Moana Beyer on how using MRI helps to understand the link between the environment and the human brain. This would have been hugely helpful at the start of my PhD in environmental neuroscience. Check it out 👇

Very excited to give a talk about this project on individual and nation-level predictors of climate-relevant beliefs and behaviors at #DGPs2024 🤩 Join me on Monday (16.09) at 16:30 at Seminarraum 1 📍👋🏼
🌍 Thrilled to share our new preprint and the first part of my thesis! Using machine learning, we analyzed data from 55 countries to uncover key individual and nation-level predictors of climate change beliefs & behaviors. Let's dive in! 🧵 1/12

Curious about how dogs process social interactions? Wondering if unexpected turns elicit a “social prediction error“ analogous to humans & primates? Visit my poster "The neural bases of how dogs navigate their social environment" (#101) this Friday 2-5:30 pm #FENS2024 🐩🧠
