In my MA and PhD research, I have designed and conducted online experiments with both adults and children exploring their cognitive and lexical skills. I joined SUTD as one of the postdoctoral researchers in ‘Kyanite – Improved Cognition by Design’ [link] in January 2017, a joint research project between the Augmented Human Lab (AHL) and the Language and Social Cognition Lab (LASC). My job is to map out cognitive capacities using a range of tasks (assessing executive functioning and robot-control performance) with a variety of methodologies that enhance behavioral measurements by acquiring continuous, real-time physiological variables (pupillary response, galvanic skin response, heart-rate variability, and EEG signature). In the future, I plan to study the cognitive and linguistic performance of bilinguals, for which Singapore provides the perfect environment.
