Research

My current reserach focus is on examining how, in those with psychotic spectrum disorders and sentenced to forensic care, anamnestic risk factors for aggression are mediated through psychological functions and biological vulnerabilities. The current study (SPRätt) combines emotion recognition and mentalizing paradigms, fNIRS with tests of cognitive function, arousal measures during performance stress, as well as genetics, epigenetics and protein expression.

Teaching

Have taught at undergraduate level course on Schizophrenia and Related Psychoses. At Post graduate level am coteaching course on Psychiatric diagnostics.
