About Martien Schrooten

Martien Schrooten is an Associate Professor at the Center for Health and Medical Psychology (CHAMP), School of Behavioural, Social, and Legal Sciences. Her research and teaching involve cognition, learning, and experimental health psychology, with a focus on how we behave and think in the face of pain. At Örebro University, she is a member of the research teams Psychology and Pain and Emotion and Behavior, and has ongoing collaborations with Artificial Intelligence for Life and Cognitive Neuroscience of Ageing. Martien completed her Phd in experimental psychopathology at Maastricht University (NL) and worked as a Postdoc at the universities of Maastricht, Leuven (B), and Örebro.
