Does the digital age bring challenges and opportunities for love? In this line of work, our lab explores whether advances in methods (e.g., machine learning) and medium (e.g., cell phones) affects interpersonal attraction.
Theme 3: Oxytocin and food
Extending research from animal models, our lab investigates whether the hormone oxytocin is involved in the regulation of human appetite and of weight.

In this line of work, we investigate the impact of having technology at the dinner table. To what extent does this change our eating experiences?
