Interests

I am interested in temporal cognition and how auditory and motor rhythmic processes relate to speech production and perception. I currently work with Dr. Tobias Goehring on a project investigating the neural correlates of speech perception in cochlear implant users. Before coming to the CBU, I undertook my PhD at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London, where I researched speech breathing using behavioural and physiological methods, as well as developed automated approaches for the analysis of the speech and speech breathing time series. Other interests include sequential and procedural learning, as well as cross-disciplinary topics such as Deaf studies, voice studies, and ethnomusicology.
