Biographie / Publications
My research interests lie in the field of cognitive and clinical neurosciece. I am engaged in projects concerning multisensory perception, brain plasticity, higher cognition, cerebellar components in cognitive processes, and neural underpinnings of psychiatric deseases such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. My background is psychology, I obtained master of science degree at the Jagiellonian University, Kraków. In my projects I am resposible for designing and programming psychobehavioural and fMRI experiments, psychological assesment and data analysis.
