New face at IMC

Christoffer Lundbak Olesen

Hello everybody, my name is Christoffer and I will be working at IMC until September next year with Chris Mathys on his project "Mechanisms of Madness". This project seeks to explain delusions in the field of computational psychiatry.  My background is in cognitive science, and my work here will be mainly focused on cognitive experiments. I am also interested in the science and philosophy of consciousness, and I spent a lot of time thinking about the relationship between experience, behavior and neuromechanics. A newly found interest of mine is neurodiversity and the question of how to conceptualize mental dysfunction. I am happy to be a part of IMC and I hope to discuss a lot of great ideas with a lot of great people while I am here.
