Biography
I am a post-doctoral research associate with LuCiD, working on the project: Understanding the factors influencing the comprehension and production of complex sentences (PI: Prof Anna Theakston, Co-I: Prof Silke Brandt). This project uses behaviour measures (e.g., forced-choice sentence-picture matching, sentence completion and repetition) and eye-tracking for pupillometry to investigate critical factors affecting children’s and adults’ language processing.
