About me

As of September 2022, I'm a research software engineer at the Alan Turing Institute.

I'm trained as a cognitive neuroscientist and psychologist. I've conducted research into many aspects of perception and cognition using techniques such as electroencephalography (EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI), and transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS).

I was previously a lecturer in the School of Psychology at the University of Lincoln, UK, where I taught research methods and statistics using R. Before that, I was a post-doctoral Research Fellow at the University of Leeds, UK, and before that a post-doctoral Research Fellow at the University of Leipzig, DE.
