Research interests
Currently I am working under a ERC grant investigating the role of sleep in creativity.
I have a strong interest in the threshold state of sleep known as NREM 1 and the experiential phenomena that occur at this stage (hypnagogia) and also upon awakening (hypnapompia).
My other interests include the visual system / processing, other arguably 'altered-states' such as anger, stress etc and health related to sleep.
