Professor of Cognitive Psychology
Interested in judgment and decision making research, risk-taking, cognitive control, and human factors. In cognitive neuroscience, I employed eye tracking, EEG, fMRI, and non invasive neurostimulation.
What is important right now in research on Decision Making? The new edited book "Decision Making" is now out: lnkd.in/eVshgXxZ; My chapter on non-invasive brain stimulation effects on decision-making describes the potential of this type of interventions, as well as some limitations.

One of the great 'hidden' secrets is our equipment to study the brain. We showcased it in the UEL Psychology Open Lab day. Students experienced EEG, brain stimulation, eye-tracking, VR, and biopacs. Thanks: student demonstrators, technicians, & Elley Wakui! #StudentLed #LearningOutsideTheClassroom
