Yasmin Malard is a Research Assistant at the University of Basel. She is currently completing her Bachelor of Science in Psychology at the University of Basel and will soon begin a master’s degree in Social Neuroscience (major) with a minor in Cognitive and Clinical Psychology at the University of Bern. Her bachelor’s thesis focused on belief formation and belief updating under probabilistic and reinforcement learning paradigms in schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder. Similarly, she is currently involved in a research project of the Translational Psychiatry Lab (UPK Basel) investigating choice history bias in auditory decision-making of individuals with schizophrenia. In her role, she contributes to participant recruitment and screening and is involved in data collection using EEG and eye-tracking methods as well as in supporting the organisation, supervision and implementation of the study. Yasmin has a growing interest in transdiagnostic approaches to mental disorders and aims to contribute to theoretical and empirical work that deepens our understanding of patient populations. In the future, she hopes to help translate such insights into clinical practice.
