Activities

Research theme
My research aims to understand and explain the cognitive mechanisms (implicit and explicit) involved in food choice in individuals of different ages and weight statuses in order to promote healthier and more sustainable choices. 
Scientific approach
My research is structured around two main research axes: "Cognition-Obesity" and "Cognition-Sustainable Food".
