Crynodeb o'r ymchwil
Mae fy niddordebau ymchwil yn cynnwys astudio'r mecanweithiau niwral y tu ôl i brosesu emosiynau a gwybyddiaeth gymdeithasol yn fwy cyffredinol. Mae gen i ddiddordeb hefyd mewn sut mae prosesu signalau cymdeithasol, fel wynebau, mynegiant a syllu llygaid, yn newid gyda datblygiad, a gall fod yn wahanol mewn cyflyrau niwro-ddatblygiadol, gan gynnwys Awtistiaeth. I fynd i'r afael â'r cwestiynau hyn, rwy'n defnyddio cyfuniad o ddulliau ymddygiadol a niwrodelweddu.
Crynodeb addysgu
Ar lefel UG, rwy'n addysgu ar y modiwl Meddwl, Emosiwn ac Ymwybyddiaeth Blwyddyn 2 (PS2023) a'r modiwl Canfyddiad Cymdeithasol Blwyddyn Olaf (PS3215). Rwyf hefyd yn goruchwylio prosiectau myfyrwyr Blwyddyn Olaf, ac yn gweithredu fel tiwtor personol.
Ar lefel PG, rwy'n addysgu ar y cwrs MSc Cyflyrau Seicolegol Plant, yn ogystal â goruchwylio prosiectau traethawd hir myfyrwyr MSc a gweithredu fel tiwtor personol.

Ymchwil
Pynciau ymchwil a phapurau cysylltiedig
Mae fy ymchwil yn ymwneud yn eang â phrosesu gwybodaeth gymdeithasol, ac yn enwedig y systemau ymennydd sy'n sail i brosesu signalau cymdeithasol, gan gynnwys wynebau a syllu llygaid. Yn benodol, mae prosiectau parhaus yn ymchwilio i sut mae cyd-destun yn effeithio ar brosesu signalau cymdeithasol, a sut mae'r ymennydd yn cyfuno gwybodaeth o'r gwahanol signalau hyn (e.e. Teufel et al, 2019; Ward et al, 2023). Mae gen i ddiddordeb arbennig yn sut mae gwybodaeth emosiwn o'r wyneb a'r corff yn cael eu hintegreiddio, a beth all hyn ei ddweud wrthym am egwyddorion sy'n llywodraethu prosesu gwybodaeth gymdeithasol yn yr ymennydd.
Mae gen i ddiddordeb hefyd mewn sut mae prosesu gwybodaeth gymdeithasol yn newid yn ystod datblygiad (e.e. Ward et al, 2023), a sut y gallai fod yn wahanol mewn unigolion awtistig (e.e. Finn et al, 2024). Mae prosiectau parhaus yn cynnwys archwilio cydamseriad cymdeithasol mewn plant (e.e. Bowsher-Murray et al, 2022; 2023) ac anawsterau adnabod emosiynau mewn plant (e.e. Gezer-Flannigan et al, dan adolygiad), ac ymchwilio i'r defnydd o robotiaid humanoid mewn rhyngweithiadau cymdeithasol â phlant awtistig (e.e. MacGregor et al, 2025).
Mae fy ymchwil yn cynnwys cyfuniad o ddulliau ymddygiadol a niwroddelweddu, gan gynnwys seicoffiseg, profion ymddygiadol, olrhain llygaid, MRI swyddogaethol, ac MRI trylediad.
