Message for Students

Studying at university is not only about deepening knowledge, but also a time to reflect on oneself and develop ways of thinking and attitudes. Through collaborating with others, encountering diverse perspectives and abilities, you can begin to find a personal path toward contributing to society.

Research Area

I investigate human behaviour and decision-making through data-driven model-based approaches that draw from educational psychology, cognitive science and human–machine interaction. I analyse how constraint structures behaviour, how behaviour is adapted over time and how these processes generate measurable outcomes within complex systems.
