About me

Broadly speaking my research focuses on how reward signals in the environment influence cognitive processes such as learning, memory and decision-making. I use behavioural experiments combined with statistcial and computaional models to answer questions about memory and risky choice. I also have some experience of other experimental techniques including eye-tracking, electroencephalography (EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
