I am interested in understanding the neurocognitive mechanisms that underlie social interactions and communication. Specifically, I want to understand the mechanisms underlying reward perception and engagement in conversational speech using neuroimaging techniques such as EEG. I am also fascinated by the ways in which speakers synchronize with one another during conversation, and how this affects speech perception and representation. I am also interested in investigating the role of pragmatic and social evaluation in communication, and how these factors influence our perceptions of others. Finally, I am intrigued by accent perception, and how we use linguistic cues to make judgments about others. Through my research, I hope to shed light on these complex processes and contribute to a greater understanding of how we communicate and interact with one another in diverse contexts.
