Anne is a postdoctoral researcher funded by the German Research Foundation and is interested in prosocial behavior and empathy. In her current project together with Dr Lei Zhang and Prof Patricia Lockwood, she investigates social influences on how we form empathy towards others and on how we make social decisions. She completed her PhD at the University of Würzburg in Germany and holds diplomas (equivalent to a respective combined MSc and BSc) in psychology and physics from the University of Tübingen, Germany.
In general, she is interested in the computational modelling of social (decision) behavior in combination with functional magnetic-resonance imaging and in how we can make our research more open and reproducible.
Outside the lab, she enjoys exploring Birmingham’s playgrounds with her family, listening to music, travelling to places by train, and eating noodle soup.
