Time, rhythms and perception in human behaviour
My work combines psychophysics and behavioural experiments with statistical methods and time-series analysis. The underlying question is how the nervous system represents time, on scales ranging from milliseconds to 24 hours.
Research lines
Perception and production of temporal intervals
How we estimate, reproduce and synchronise intervals from milliseconds to seconds: finger-tapping tasks, sensorimotor synchronisation, and the effect of sensory context on temporal judgements.
Circadian rhythms and sleep
Estimating circadian phase from actigraphy, wearable and luminescence data; markers such as the dim light melatonin onset (DLMO), and the effect of daylight-saving transitions on sleep in real-world populations.
Auditory and spatial perception
Sound-source localisation, distance perception, and the interaction between auditory and visual information in building perceptual space.
Statistical methods for the behavioural sciences
Inference for periodic data, mixed models and the analysis of experimental data with R. Much of this work overlaps with my teaching and with the blog.
