Welcome to the Social Perception Lab at Karolinska Institutet

Principal Investigator: Arvid Guterstam, M.D. Ph.D.

The overarching goal of our research is to understand how our brains shape the perception of other social agents. We are particularly interested how low-level sensory mechanisms may be used to construct higher social models in the brain, and how these processes contribute to theory-of-mind ability and affects behaviour.
