Hi! I'm a cog psychologist at the Uni of Sheffield, UK, investigating individual differences in cog abilities and how they change (or even improve?!) through experience, using methods from experimental and differential cog psy, & sometimes cog neuro and comp modelling.
A major current project in our lab is a multi-site processing speed training study across the adult life-span using drift-diffusion modelling, so stay tuned!
