Research Theme

Cognitive and Behavioural Neuroscience

Interests

Using an interdisciplinary approach of experimental

economics, social psychology, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), my research examines the impact of group membership on individual decision-making and behaviour, particularly the extent to which human adapt to new social groups and how group characteristics can lead to pro- or anti-social behaviour. I am also interested in understanding the nature and causes of corrupt and in-group favouring behaviour and the wider implications of such behaviours on social and economic development.
