I'm looking at the way humans can express and interpret emotional states without using language (non-linguistic vocalizations such as laughing and screaming) - the informational content of such sounds, their universality and evolutionary roots. My supervisors are Christian Balkenius and Tomas Persson. You will find more information about the research, publications and ongoing experiments on my page at www.cogsci.se
