Summary

Having completed my ESRC funded PhD in 1991 as a mature student, I worked on my research as a MRC Post-Doc Research Fellow at UCL until 1994. In 1994 I was the first psychologist to be awarded a four-year (1994-1998) Wellcome Trust Research Career Development Fellowship at UCL. While I was at UCL, I taught Intercalated Medical Students who completed their BSc in Psychology within a year. I was then offered a lectureship at Ã÷ÐÇ°ËØÔ in 1995, and was promoted to professor of cognitive neuroscience in 2004.  I was the Head of Psychology twice, in total 10 years – 2004-2008 as the Head of the Department of Psychology, School of Social Sciences, and 2012-2018 (2012-2014: Head of the Department of Psychology (SSS) & 2014-2018: Divisional Lead in Psychology, Department of Life Sciences, College of Health and Life Sciences (now College of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences).  I was a Local GroupRepresentative (LGR) of the British Neuroscience Association (BNA) from 2014-2023.  I am a member of the editorial board of Dyslexia.
