About Me
I am a first-year PhD student at the University of York. My research focuses on a CA approach to doctor-patient interaction, especially pediatric consultations. I also explore multimodal conversation analysis, investigating how non-verbal cues, such as gestures and other visual elements contribute to communication in healthcare settings.
