Research
What is the link between the body and the self? How do we become aware of ourselves and of others? How do we relate to and respond to the images that power human culture? These are some of the key questions that we research.

People
Academics are fortunate enough to spend their whole career surrounded by young minds. A privilege that few other professions can give you. These are the people who make our research possible, successful and most enjoyable. The people to whom I am grateful for their creativity, skills and openness.

Lilla Hodossy

I completed my B.A. in Psychology and M.A. in Cognitive Psychology and Cognitive Development at ELTE, Hungary. I continued my postgraduate studies with UCL’s Cognitive Neuroscience course, where my M.Sc. project investigated the interpersonal effects of motor coordination and social context. The year before my PhD, I worked in the Lab of Action and Body at RHUL as a research assistant on a project which explores the role of bodily overlap in mother-infant relationships. I remained at RHUL to pursue my PhD in Psychology supervised by Manos Tsakiris.
Research Interests
My PhD investigates the importance of autonomic regulation in affective processes both in individual and interpersonal context. We know that the proper functioning of the social engagement system relies on the healthy function of the autonomic nervous system – yet the underlying mechanism and components of this relationship is less explored. We aim to fill this gap with a series of studies by investigating the necessary components of voluntary autonomic control in enhancing emotion (co)regulation within person and between individuals.
