Francisco Molins Correa is an Assistant Professor (Profesor Ayudante Doctor) in the Department of Health Psychology at the University of Alicante. He received the Extraordinary Doctoral Award in Neuroscience from the University of Valencia, where he developed his pre- and postdoctoral career in the Department of Psychobiology. His research focuses on the interaction between emotion and cognition from a psychophysiological perspective. Specifically, his work examines how stress, interoception, and alexithymia modulate processes such as decision-making, emotional regulation, and psychological well-being, with a particular interest in understanding how the perception of bodily signals and emotional processing influence our behaviour and the risk of developing mental health problems. This research has been conducted in both healthy and clinical populations, including autism spectrum disorder, gambling disorder, and other addictions. He has published articles in high-impact scientific journals, collaborated on several research projects, and presented work at national and international conferences. He also teaches at undergraduate and postgraduate level, and engages in science communication through his YouTube channel Mr. Hipotálamo.
