Research: Autism and Identity Recognition
During my master’s thesis in neurobiology, I worked on a project in a neuroscience laboratory, gaining expertise in the setup of 64 and 32 channel EEG headsets and in the labelling of experimental nights according to AASM guidelines. Currently I'm investigating the role of IR (identity recognition) in autistic people by assessing behavioural, neuro-biological and hormonal aspects across different sensory modalities in AUT adults. I'm working with the EEG on the first phase of the experiment: how adult autistic people perceive and recognize other people's facial features.
