I’m a postdoctoral researcher in the Fiebach Lab for Cognitive Neuroscience, at Goethe University Frankfurt. I’m interested in visual word recognition, and how it is that we’re able to read so quickly and efficiently. I use EEG, eye-tracking, and behavioural paradigms to look at the early stages of recognising words, especially the processing of graphemic and orthographic information, and how these stages are influenced by context and expectation. I’m also interested in how we represent and access semantic information like concreteness (glory vs. cliff) and semantic size (tooth vs. whale). I’m a big fan of hierarchical analyses and overly complicated Bayesian models.
