“We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are” -- Anaïs Nin (1961).
Throughout my research work, I have delved into the issue of how humans process and integrate sensory information, and how these processes change as a consequence of neurological conditions or sensory deprivation. In particular, I have investigated the crossmodal plasticity mechanisms that can be observed in people who have been blind since birth or who have lost their sighted later in life. I have explored these issues from both a behavioural (psychophysics) and neuroimaging perspective (i.e., MEG and fMRI).
In continuation with my long-standing research interest into (multi)sensory perception, I am currently in the process of setting the foundations of a new avenue in my career path, by exploring how cognitive and perceptual processes can be affected by individual variability in traits, beliefs and personality.
