Between January 2021 and October 2024, I was a PhD student in the Computational Neuroscience of Speech and Hearing group.

PhD research

In my doctoral thesis, Exploring cognitive decline through the aging ear with natural speech-based computational neurophysiology, I investigated how the brains of older participants process speech in hearing loss and whether the neurophysiological markers used have predictive potential for cognitive decline. My thesis is published on ZORA.
I am passionate about all things related to state-of-the-art data science, neuroscience and psychology. And I have enjoyed working with study participants and supervising student theses.
I was also a fellow of The International Max Planck Research School on the Life Course (LIFE IMPRS).
You can find my publications listed on Google Scholar and my coding efforts are documented in my GitHub account.

Previous research

I hold a Master of Science in Psychology with a focus on Cognitive Neuroscience from the University of Zurich. During my Master's studies, I conducted research in the domain of Cognitive Neuroscience of the Bodily Self under the supervision of Bigna Lenggenhager, specifically on the topic of virtual gender swap and auditory self-awareness from a first- versus third-person perspective.
