I completed my studies in neuroscience and currently working on fun emotions. I’m interested in conserved behaviours which we normally never pay attention to, in addition to social interactions between animals and communication.

After studying neurobiology, behavior and cognition, I turned to systems neuroscience to investigate how touch is translated into joy. I am mostly interested in the evolution and the neural underpinnings of social emotions, music and language. I believe that the roots of all allegedly unique human capacities are to be found across the animal kingdom.
