Personal profile
Research interests
I am a research associate in the School of Psychological Science, and my research interests lie in anything related to Social Psychology, but especially social cognition and intergroup relations.
A large part of my research has focused on the study of Human-Animal relations using the theoretical tools from social psychology (e.g., generalized prejudice, cognitive dissonance), and it is in this context that I've joined, as a postdoc, a multidisciplinary and international project aiming at better understand why rabies persists as a major public health issue in India (https://rohindies.org/).
I'm also a big Open Science enthusiast, very interested by replications and large-scale collaborative research (also called 'Big Team Science').
