My name is Charlotte and I am a postdoctoral researcher with the Learning and Instruction group lead by Prof. Dr. Martina Rau at ETH Zurich, Switzerland.

I am interested in the role of human bodies when learning imperceptible - specifically chemical concepts. How can we understand concepts that we have no way of perceiving? Therefore, I am interested in embodied cognition, conceptual metaphors, but also psycholinguistics and philosophy of science.
