Profile

Hello! I have recently finished my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Business & Management from the University of Glasgow. I am currently a Research Assistant working on an exciting project - 'Optimising transcranial electrical stimulation for motor neuron disease' - with Dr Alekhya Mandali and Dr James Alix. My interests lie in neuropsychology, which came about while I was working on my dissertation that investigated the role of non-invasive brain stimulation (rTMS) on working memory performance. I am looking forward to exploring and furthering my knowledge within this field, with the future aspiration of becoming a Research Psychologist!
