about

about

Yasmin Alrabiei is an Iraqi writer and researcher based in London. With a background in Neuroscience and Cognitive Science, her work bridges the worlds of scientific inquiry and cultural memory - challenging the Western, academic impulse to separate the two by honouring that intersection.

​

Her writing often explores the psychological imprints of memory-building across distant geographies, and the neural architecture of nostalgia, treating memory as a sensory and narrative terrain.  Through both personal and speculative forms, she investigates how memory is stored, ritualised and ultimately transferred as a living pulse.  

​

Alongside her creative practice, Yasmin works commercially as a researcher specialising in user experience, behavioural economics, and cultural insight. Her clients include Adidas, The Science Museum, Virgin Atlantic, Microsoft, Co-op, L'Oréal, and others.
