I am a reader in the Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of Bristol. My research involves experiments on human beings guided by computational models. Research areas include short- and long-term memory (particularly for order and time); modelling of saccadic decision making; categorisation; investigation and analysis of serial correlations (1/f noise) in human cognition; and model selection issues.
My collaborators include Steve Lewandowsky, Klaus Oberauer, Chris Jarrold, Casimir Ludwig, Iain Gilchrist, Roger Carpenter, Eric-Jan Wagenmakers and Roger Ratcliff.
I am an Associate Editor for the Journal of Memory and Language.
I currently teach memory (2nd year), and statistics (MSc). In previous years I have also taught cognitive modelling (3rd year), neuropsychology (MSc), and psychology of language (MSc).
Would you like to do a PhD in our lab? I am always on the look-out for bright people looking to do a PhD in one of my areas of interest (see publications). This is an opportunity to gain training in computational modelling of psychological processes, as well as developing your general research skills and learning lots about human cognition!
