I am also interested in Science and Public Engagement, with a focus on involving patients and the public in the design of psychological and healthcare research, and ensuring research is communicated clearly to non-expert audiences.

I received my BSc in Psychology from Cardiff University and a Masters by Research (MRes) in Cognitive Neuropsychology from the University of Birmingham. I received my PhD in Psychosis Studies from King’s College London’s Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience.
