Overview

I'm principally interested in the role of sleep in mental health and cognition. For more information, see my lab website. 

Feel free to get in touch if you're interested in joining my lab as a PhD student or independent research fellow. I'm happy to supervise projects related to sleep, emotion regulation and memory.
