episode Kiran on Sensory Processing Sensitivity and Wellbeing cover

Kiran on Sensory Processing Sensitivity and Wellbeing

In episode 7 of our second series, we're in conversation with doctoral researcher Kiran Garcha about her PhD research in cognitive and clinical neuroscience. Kiran explains her work focusing on Sensory Processing Sensitivity (SPS), an inheritable trait affecting around 30% of the population. She delves into the links between SPS and mental health challenges like anxiety and depression, and how her research, using neuroimaging and behavioural studies, aims to understand the cognitive and emotional reactivity associated with this trait. Kiran also discusses the potential for developing therapeutic interventions and the importance of raising awareness about SPS. Finally, she offers practical advice for those undertaking a PhD, emphasising the benefits of early writing and clearly defining your research question.
