Overview
Behavioural neuroscience PhD student at Cardiff University. Interested in behavioural estimates of reaction time sub-components and their link to measures of brain function from MEG. This is with the aim of better understanding individual differences in human performance of reaction time based tasks, which in turn could be used to improve validity of research outcomes, and potentially, clinical diagnosis tools.
I am affiliated with CUBRIC (Cardiff University Brain Imaging Centre), and am supervised by Dr Aline Bompas and Professor Krish Singh.

Research
Our lab uses/ is interested in a range of behavioural, physiological, and neurological techniques (Poffenberger Paradigm, speeded tasks, selective stopping tasks, eye-tracking, MEG, EMG, structural MRI) to understand visuo-motor processes and individual differences in these processes.
Teaching
Acting as a graduate tutor in statistics based modules.
