Research Interests
 

Our research interests lie in the area of social and motor cognition. We have a broad interest in how the 'self' is embodied in a motor action and the interplay between related (low-level) sensorimotor and (high-level) cognitive processes.
 
Our current work is dedicated to understanding the rewarding aspects of sensorimotor control (e.g., 
 own-action sensory feedback) and its contribution to motor control, action selection, motivation, cognitive control, perception, and conscious experience.

Our lab uses various cognitive and experimental psychology methods and includes studies on typical and atypical cognitive development.
