Neural Dynamics of Visual Cognition
Student Assistant
In June 2024, I joined the Neurocognitive and General Psychology group by Dr. Arash Aryani. I am currently in my second semester of studying Psychology, and I am thrilled to gain early, hands-on experience in scientific research, as opposed to just learning theoretical concepts for years before applying them. Recently, I taught myself coding in Python, and I am excited to apply this new skill in our research project as well.
While I am still relatively new to the research field, I am eager to contribute meaningfully to our group. My passion for creative problem-solving and learning new things makes me confident that I can be a valuable resource for the team. Contrary to popular opinion among my peers, I love statistics and look forward to applying the methods I have learned so far in our work.
Before starting university, I pursued a career in music for about five years and I continue to be very active musically in my free time. I also love sports, currently mainly running and lifting.
I look forward to our collaborations!
