Dr. Elena Azañón is head of Clinical Developmental Psychology at the Institute of Psychology at Otto von Guericke University. Her research investigates the psychological and neural mechanisms of tactile perception and body representation in humans and how they influence all aspects of our mental life. Part of her research is also dedicated to studying mental images as a tool for perception and learning, as well as the influence of images on emotions and memory. She examines the behavioral and neural mechanisms of somatosensory perception, skill acquisition, and mental imagery across the lifespan, using a combination of psychophysical paradigms and electrophysiology.
