Ongoing Projects
Perceptual and Attentional Mechanisms of Body Image Disturbance
Investigating the neural, physiological, and behavioural mechanisms of distorted perception and biased attention related to misperceived body image. This work is for my PhD dissertation.
Supervisor: Jamie D. Feusner, M.D.
3D Head Models for EEG Spatial Localization
Developing protocols that leverage 3D head models to improve the accessibility of EEG electrode localization.
