Research Interests
I am a second-year DPhil student affiliated with the Crossmodal Perception Lab led by Professor Charles Spence. I am interested in studying perceptual metacognition within and across the senses, and I am currently exploring how we think about our senses of smell, taste, and mouthfeel in various contexts.
In the future, I would also like to investigate how individuals estimate how others tend to group stimuli from different senses together, as well as how this estimation changes across cultures and developmental stages. In particular, I would be interested in exploring how well people judge how "consensual", or common, a given way of pairing sensory stimuli is.
With a research background in bat and frog auditory perception and people's thinking of their thinking of thinking (i.e., meta-metacognition), I aspire to combine metacognition research with perception research in novel ways.
