Name:

Dr Carien van Reekum

Job Title:

Lecturer

Responsibilities:

Student Recruitment Strategist; Coordinator of the Neuroscience Methods meetings

Teaching:

Undergraduate: Neuroscience, Emotion; Postgraduate: Neuroscience

Areas of interest:

My research focuses on the neural underpinnings of emotion reactivity and regulation, how individuals differ in engaging brain areas relevant for emotion, and how this variable engagement of the brain when processing emotion varies with age. Measures of brain imaging (MRI, EEG) and peripheral psychophysiology (e.g. facial EMG, skin conductance, heart rate) in addition to behavioural measures and self-reports are used in this endeavour. Other interests include how emotion modulates attention allocation and how an individual's disposition biases the evaluation of emotion-relevant or emotionally ambiguous information.
