Her research focuses on the integration of philosophy, neuroscience, and psychology, particularly examining how interoception—the perception of internal bodily states—relates to consciousness. She advocates for an embodied mind approach, challenging traditional views that separate mental processes from physical states. This interdisciplinary work bridges theoretical philosophy with empirical cognitive science.
