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.
