Overview
Psychophysiologist and cognitive neuroscientist.
Within the School of Psychology and Sport Science, I hold these roles:
Research
- Researcher. My research uses and develops computational methods of psychophysiology to improve understanding within the areas of cognitive neuroscience and biological psychology. I am affiliated with the Institute for the Psychology of Elite Performance (IPEP) and the Institute for Applied Human Physiology (IAHP).
Admin:
- Research Colloquia Lead
- Research Ethics and Governance Committee Reviewer
- Pastoral care / Personal Tutor
Teaching:
- Module Organiser and Instructor. I organize several modules for the Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences. I teach within a very wide area spanning psychology, biomechanics, and anatomy.
- Supervisor for students' Dissertations and Research Projects. I supervise undergraduate and postgraduate students.
