LIST OF PUBLICATIONS

I studied cognitive and affective psychology at the University of Geneva. I am currently doing a PhD in Affective Neuroscience under the supervision of Prof. David Sander and Dr. Catherine Audrin.

My main research is on the neural representation of epistemic curiosity and how it can be compared to primary or secondary rewards. I also work on epistemic and achievement emotions and their effect on learning in academic contexts. Together with my supervisors, we investigate which appraisals predict interest/curiosity felt towards a text.
