I am interested in computational models of psychiatric disorders. Do the sufferings and satisfactions of an unwell brain correspond to specific patterns of neural computations? What do we need to know about these neural computations to improve therapies and empower sufferers? These research interests are informed by clinical, medical psychotherapy experience, and thus give centre stage to clinical relevance and the suffering of the individual in their community. Within our very promising field of computational psychiatry, it is crucial to delineate which domains of information processing are central to psychosocial (as well as neurobiological) therapies. My main clinical interests are functional somatic symptoms, psychosis and personality disorder (so called!). The latter two inspired me to study thinking that others wish us harm, and also how people represent each other's benign or hostile minds. I now work on several aspects of the relation between basic information processing in the brain and high-level psychiatric symptoms.
