Her experiences in psychological and neuroscientific research are wide and varied, working over the last 8 years on clinical and medical neuroimaging studies on patients with disorders such as ADHD, psychosis and alcoholism.
Larisa is interested in how we can measure dynamic cognitive changes across our lifespan and in creating and validating naturalistic methods to study cognitive functions. Her research includes methods such as fNIRS, virtual reality, eye-tracking and mobile phone applications, all applied to study cognitive functions in real-life contexts.
