About HanaI am interested in the neurohormonal basis of human motivation in social environments. My research focuses on how our brain processes social rewards (e.g. processing of approval or social status promotion) and how testosterone modulates these processes. To address my research aims I use methods such as hormone administration, fMRI, as well as psychological and behavioural measures.
My PhD at the NBU is funded by a three-year Uni:docs fellowship. |
Background |
Before joining the NBU I had graduated from the University of Geneva, Switzerland with an interdisciplinary Master´s degree in Neuroscience. I originally come from Slovakia, where I also completed Bachelor studies in Psychology at the Comenius University.
Previously I worked at the Geneva University Hospitals, where we investigated the effects maternal violence-related Posttraumatic Stress Disorder on brain and HPA-axis activity in mother-child interactions. |
