Understanding how ideas and emotions spread, using tools from marketing, behavioral science, and neuroscience.


Research in our lab examines social influence, emotion, and persuasive messaging. This work combines social-behavioral experiments with functional neuroimaging, natural language processing, and computational modelling to better understand the mechanisms that give rise to impactful communication.
