Interests

My current research examines the phenomenology of altered states of consciousness, including psychedelic-induced states, religious transcendence, and aesthetic experiences elicited by music or imagination. I adopt a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative thematic analysis of self-reports with NLP-based techniques to study linguistic patterns and their variation across states.
