Relationship between cognitive performance and body balance
We explore the interference of cognitive and emotional tasks on postural control, as assesed through measurements optainted from a force plate.

Interaction between cognitive and emotional processes
In my PhD-project, I focused on cognitive control mechanisms that operate in face of emotional information. The main goal is to unravel under which conditions cognitive control processes generalize across emotional domains.
