Biography

I am a PhD candidate at Charles University in Prague, Department of Electronic Culture and Semiotics, specializing in the philosophy and semiotics of communication. My research delves into the fascinating world of framing effects in psychology, exploring how the presentation of information shapes its interpretation and comprehension. I am particularly interested in the pragmatic comprehension of meaning, with additional passion about rhetoric and public speaking. My curiosity extends to the field of cognitive science, where I explore approaches to information comprehension and the concept of rationality.
