Research Theme

Cognitive and Behavioural Neuroscience

Interests

My research has covered various aspects of human hearing, mostly in healthy individuals. Amongst them are pitch perception, auditory grouping and streaming processes, effects of attention on auditory perception, loudness perception and masking. It incorporates mostly behavioural and electrophysiological recording techniques.
