My research interests fall broadly in the domain of Learning and Memory and their influence on other cognitive faculties.
The role of sleep, plasticity and memory consolidation in the comprehension of language - funded by the Economic and Social Research Council.
I am currently working with Prof. Gareth Gaskell investigating how rapid encoding, sleep and memory consolidation facilitate the comprehension of language. The Project aims to reveal how sleep and memory processes contribute both to the interpretation of language during active discourse and to the longer-term retention of linguistic information.
