Biography
I completed my PhD in psycholinguistics and cognitive neuroscience at the University of Glasgow in 2012. After a year as a Research Fellow at the University of Kent, I joined the University of Manchester as a Lecturer in 2013. I am now a Senior Lecturer at Lancaster University.
Research Interests
My research interests broadly lie in cognitive neuroscience of language. My current work focuses on neurocognitive mechanisms of inner speech and verbal hallucinations, abstract conceptual processing, discourse reading, and bilingual processing. I use behavioural methods, EEG, s/fMRI, eye tracking, neurostimulation, computational modelling in my research.
