Short bio

I hold degrees from the University of Nicosia, Cyprus (BSc in Psychology 2017), University College London (MPhil in Cognitive Science 2020) and Birkbeck, University of London (MSc in Psychological Research Methods 2018 and PhD in Psychology 2023).

Currently, I'm working as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Cognitive Computational Neuroscience (CCN) Lab, Institute for Computer Science at University of Bern and Experimental Neurology Center (ZEN), Department of Neurology at Inselspital University Hospital Bern, working with Prof Athina Tzovara. My work in the lab focuses on investigating the functional role of intrinsic neural timescales during wakefullness and sleep and exploring the representations of speech and music in intracranial EEG recordings.

Before moving to Switzerland, I worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Auditory, Language, Perception, Hearing and Attention Lab, Department of Psychological Sciences at Birkbeck, University of London, working with Prof Adam T Tierney and Prof Fred Dick. My research investigated how prior experience (language background and musical training) shapes the salience of various acoustic dimensions and our ability to use that information in learning a second language (L2). I explored auditory attention, salience, and distractibility in auditory perception using behavioural and neuroimaging methods (EEG, FFR, and fMRI).
