Overview
Research summary
The medial temporal lobe and particularly the hippocampus has long been associated with memory function in humans and non-human animals. This region is often involved in psychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions, such as schizophrenia and Alzheimer’s disease. My current research is aimed at addressing two main questions:
- What role does the hippocampus and associated brain structures play in memory?
- How do neurodegenerative conditions influence the function of the hippocampus?
In addressing these questions I use preclinical models of brain pathology synaptic including genetic models of heritable neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal dementia.
Current projects include:
- assessment of the psychological and neural substrates of configural and episodic-like memory, characterisation of transgenic models of Alzheimer’s disease;
- investigation of the psychological and neural benefits of dietary supplements on Alzheimer’s pathology;
- assessment of a novel antibody treatment for amyloid pathology;
- investigation of cannabinoid receptors in memory and neurodegenerative diseases;
- the role of maternal priming in the onset of Alzheimer’s disease in later life.
Teaching summary
My teaching includes: lectures on biological psychology to level 2 undergraduate students; a complete level 3 module on the neuroscience of learning and memory; lectures to neuroscience students and medical students on preclinical models of Alzheimer’s disease and higher cortical function in humans, respectively.
