Throughout my career, my research has traversed disciplinary boundaries, ranging from neuroscience to psychology and gender studies, and back again. Along these interdisciplinary pathways, my primary areas of expertise encompass the investigation of sex/gender differences and similarities in neurocognitive research, the conceptualization of alternative sex/gender models, the development of (intersectional) measurement tools for sex/gender in scientific contexts, and the exploration of neurobiological processes underlying language in the brain, as evidenced by my extensive publication record.
Within these overarching themes, I merge gender theories with neuroscientific methodologies, effectively bridging qualitative and quantitative approaches. In this context, my contributions have taken shape in two complementary directions. Firstly, I have generated gender-theory informed insights within neuroscientific laboratories, leveraging brain imaging techniques to produce empirically-grounded findings. Secondly, I have integrated neurobiological knowledge into the realm of gender studies, enriching the discourse with interdisciplinary perspectives.
