My doctoral research aims to explore the effects of depressive symptoms on the processing of emotional information and to investigate how induced sad mood compared to neutral mood, affects the brain's responses to emotional facial expressions.

I am currently working on the Academy of Finland Research project "Social foreign language learning: behavioral and electrophysiological studies" led by Piia Astikainen. We will test the efficacy of methods utilizing social interaction and embodiment in Finnish-speaking adults learning Mandarin Chinese.
