Andreia Santiago is a Ph.D student in Cognitive Psychology, holding a master’s degree in Neuroscience. She is interested in elucidating the mechanisms linking positive emotion (happiness) to prosocial behavior. Specifically, how individual happiness and the perception of happiness in others, communicated through visual cues (e.g. happy faces) and emotional chemosignals (e.g. happy body odors), influence neural markers of reward processing, during a prosocial act.
