Professor for Clinical Psychology and Neuroscience (CPN Lab) at University of Hamburg. Interested in neural risk markers for OCD and anxiety.
We had a wonderful time at #SPR2025 @therealspr.bsky.social in Montreal. Inspiring talks & posters, and as always, a pleasure to catch up with friends and colleagues. I’m also very honoured to have been named an SPR Fellow – a recognition of my ongoing contributions to psychophysiology and SPR.
