SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS

I am keen to understand more about the behavior and experiences among different individuals. I have a particular interest in the influence of genetics on our cognitions, memory, the aging process, and the neurological conditions that arise during it. I look forward to expand my abilities to work with different measurement tools and their combination options to get a broader understanding of the topics I am interested in. Another, not yet explored, area of interest is sensory perception and processing, especially visual and olfactory.
