My name is Alexandra Georgescu and I am working as a Marie Curie postdoctoral research fellow in the Social Neuroscience Group at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, University College London. I previously worked at the Neuroimaging Lab of the University Hospital of Cologne.
My research interests lie in the investigation of the perception and production of nonverbal behavior in social interaction and its underlying neural mechanisms in typical development and autism spectrum disorders. I use behavioral and neuroimaging tools in my research, like fMRI, eye-tracking and virtual character animation.
