Pablo Arias

Dr. Pablo Arias is a Lecturer at the University of Glasgow's School of Psychology & Neuroscience, specializing in social interaction mechanisms through real-time voice and face transformations. He developed the DuckSoup experimental platform, enabling real-time audiovisual modifications during social interactions to study social cognition, including biases and alignment. His research integrates cognitive science, neuroscience, and signal processing.

Education includes a PhD in Cognitive Science from Sorbonne University, a Master of Engineering in Digital Technologies from Polytech' Nantes, and a Master of Science in Acoustics from IRCAM. His work bridges technical innovation with social science, focusing on emotion perception, cross-cultural communication, and human interaction dynamics.

Publications highlight themes like facial expression effects on attraction, voice transformation impacts on emotion judgments, and audiovisual integration in speech. His interdisciplinary approach combines experimental psychology with engineering, reflected in contributions to IEEE and PNAS.
