Anastasia, MA, MSc, is a researcher focusing on social cognition and neuroaesthetics. She is interested in exploring how people perceive and respond to real-world social interactions and how the brain responds to self-other associations. Anastasia’s interdisciplinary approach bridged neuroscience and the arts, exploring the sense of self via theatre performance during her masters at University College London. She is currently in the process of pursuing a PhD investigating social bonding and synchrony in partner dancers using mobile neuroimaging.
