Lena Matyjek

Ich bin Neuropsychologin und fasziniert von sozialer Kognition: Wie interagieren wir mit anderen? Warum macht es bei Menschen „Klick“? Mein besonderes Interesse gilt dem Autismus im Erwachsenenalter und den besonderen Stärken und Schwierigkeiten, die damit verbunden sind. Ich verwende eine Reihe von Methoden, darunter Verhaltensstudien, physiologische Messungen (Pupillometrie) und Neuroimaging (EEG). Weitere Informationen über meine Forschung und Aktivitäten finden Sie auf meiner persönlichen Website: lenamatyjek.com oder in meinem ORCID-Profil: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4546-6480.
