Research Assistant University of Oxford - Bird s lab https://sites.google.com/site/geoffbirdlab/home For my PhD., I am interested in understanding the neurobiological mechanisms underlying the heterogeneity in social cognition functioning of clinical populations with Autism and Alexithymia as well as in the general population. In particular, I combine psychophysiological and eye-tracking measures coupled with experimental designs to study typical and atypical processing of emotional faces.
