Work

  • 2024.08 - Present
    PhD Researcher
    Realistic Depictions Lab/Leibniz-Institut für Wissensmedien
    I am working with Augmented Reality (AR) and the question how real, physical objects and properties of our physical environment influence the processing of virtually (via AR) presented information. The focus is on working and interacting with this virtual information (e.g., sorting, grouping, placement in space).

    Student Research Assistant/HiWi
    Experimental Cognitive Science/Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen
    Main responsibilities included conducting behavioural and EEG experiments as well as pre-processing, analysing, visualising and reporting of resulting data using R and MATLAB. I additionally contributed in writing minor and major parts of manuscripts and filled a supporting role in seminars (e.g., creating tutorials, providing in-person assistance). Project topics included: Ultra-rapid visual processing of natural scenes. The main focus of this project is the replication and critical examination of a classic experiment (data collection, pre-processing, analysis and visualization; manuscript writing). Unconscious processing of numbers and line stimuli using a masked priming paradigm. The main focus here was a closer critical examination of conventional measures, statistical analyses and and arguments (data collection, pre-processing, visualization and analysis; tutorials for seminars).
