I am investigating the neural mechanisms that control spatial attention in the healthy brain, and how these mechanisms are altered after brain damage. The long-term goal of my research is to develop effective treatments of attentional disorders such as spatial neglect.
I am co-directing the Cognitive Ageing and Impairment Neurosciences (CAIN) lab with Dr Hannah Keage. Have a look at our website to learn more about our current research www.cain.science.
You can find more information about my research on my Google Scholar and Researchgate sites.
