Personal

 

I am a Lecturer in the School of Psychology at the University of Nottingham. I am a member of the Nottingham's Cognitive Development and Learning Group, the Nottingham Toddler Lab, the Cognitive Neuroscience Group and the Institute of Neuroscience. My research focuses on the processes underlying the development of attentional control. I design behavioural and imaging tasks to test typically developing infants, children and adults. I then apply these to the study of developmental disorders of known aetiology (primarily of known genetic origin).
