Learning and decision-making are not only omnipresent in everyday life but also play a pivotal role in the emergence, progression, and expression of mental health impairments. In my work I am especially interested in dysregulations that underly psychiatric disorders related to impulsivity and compulsivity (e.g. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Substance Use Disorders, Behavioural Addictions, Binge Eating Disorder etc.) as well as their subclinical variations. With my current studies I hope to contribute to recent transdiagnostic approaches that aim at redefining our understanding of mental illnesses. To this end, I use computational modelling along with large-scale online data acquisition.
