Biography
I studied Occupational Therapy for my undergraduate and master's degrees in Iran and worked with children with developmental and learning disorders between 2005 and 2012. I moved to Germany and completed my PhD in Neuroscience in 2017 at the University of Tübingen under the supervision of Prof Hans-Christoph Nürk. I completed a two-year postdoc in the same lab, followed by my second postdoc in Prof Daniel Ansari's lab at Western University in Canada. I moved to the School of Psychology as an assistant professor at the University of Surrey in 2021 and later joined UCL in 2024. I am the director of the Learning Brain Lab (https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ioe/departments-and-centres/departments/psychology-and-human-development/research/learning-brain-lab).
