Profile
I completed my B.A in Psychology and B.Sc (Hons) in Physics with double major program at Koç University, Turkey followed by a masters in Social Psychology from the same university (2016). Upon my graduation, I worked as a researcher at Utrecht University on olfactory modality as a medium of social communication. I completed my Ph.D. at the University of Amsterdam where I worked on communication of a wide range of positive emotions, highlighted challenges with studying emotions in the voice, and proposed a new framework for establishing valid ways to examine vocal behaviour. During my postdoc, I work on elicitors and expressions of disgust with Josh Tybur from the VU Amsterdam, and I continue to work on vocal behaviour with Disa Sauter at the UvA.

- Acoustic analysis
- Signal detection
- Computational modelling
Current research projects
- Computational ethology: We examine systematic differences in production of nonverbal vocalisations like laughs across different behavioural contexts, using machine learning.
- Contagious laughter: In this project, we investigate what contagious laughter sounds like and what makes one laugh more contagious than another.
- Individual variation in co-laughter: We investigate how idealistic attitudes, operationalized as greater estimates of the prosociality of other people, is associated with co-laughing behaviour.
