Forschung

Meine Forschung konzentriert sich auf die emotionalen Auswirkungen und neuronalen Korrelate unterschiedlicher Wahrnehmungen sozialer Interaktionen in mehrdeutigen Situationen. Insbesondere berücksichtige ich dabei Zusammenhänge mit Aggression und Störungen des Sozialverhaltens, der Gehirnstruktur, Resilienz und Humor.
