Research groups

The Fischer Lab

Fischer's research lab studies various aspects of emotional, social, perceptual, and cognitive processing. The lab also examines how intraindividual variations over stimuli and time, and interindividual differences in age, gender, genetics, personality, and lack of sleep affect these processes.

Division for Sleep and Alertness Research

The research area is focused on sleep and recovery associated with stress. The main idea is that stress/load gives long-term effects only when recovery is disturbed.

About me

I received my master’s degree in psychology in 2014 together with a teacher’s degree. I published an article based on my thesis the year after. After I graduated I worked as a research assistant at the Stress Research Institute at Stockholm University in a project where we looked at how sleep deprivation affects the response to acute social stress.

I have since spring 2017 started teaching in statistics, lectured about sleep, supervised laborations in kognition and other minor studies.

In general I’m interested in experimental psychology and primarily in emotion-cognition interaction and how it is affected by sleep loss which is going to be the main focus of my thesis.
