As a professional in the human sciences, I'm passionate about investigating the intricate relationship between social phenomena and human well-being. My current role as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie-ERA Fellow in the pioneering field of Neurosociology allows me to use a unique interdisciplinary approach. I'm focusing on the neurophysiological effects of monetary welfare, specifically by using EEG to measure how different cash transfer schemes impact brain activity related to self-perception and trust.
This current research builds directly on my previous work, which has explored a diverse range of topics. My doctoral studies focused on a basic income pilot project, examining how it influenced community beliefs and attitudes. I've also conducted research on the welfare crisis and the role of complementary money, as well as the sociolinguistic phenomena of refugee and asylum seeker reception. My work has consistently combined insights from the economics of conventions with psychological attachment models to better understand complex social dynamics.
Beyond my research, I engage in a number of complementary activities. I have a background in teaching and conducting interdisciplinary research, and I am also a certified MBSR and MBCT instructor, as well as a health and safety trainer. These roles all reflect my commitment to understanding and promoting individual and organizational well-being.
