It's #FallsPrevention awareness week, and I'm excited to share our latest publication on raising fall risk awarenes among clinicians and patients with maculopathies www.ajo.com/article/S000... 1/2

And here is the published version: tinyurl.com/593j5468 🥳 Huge thanks to co-authors for continued support with this project. Particularly proud of this one as the study terminated in the pandemic & the year that followed was a tricky one on a personal level. Got there in the end 🙌

Nothing quite beats the joy of opening a manuscript acceptance email. Even more exciting when you realise it is the last of the empirical studies from your PhD thesis to be published! 4 years post-viva and 3 jobs later, it is done! 🙂

Such a brilliant and wholesome day celebrating the 20th year of YNiC yesterday! A day filled with great science and great people. Really lovely catching up with familiar faces and sharing stories of our time at YNiC. @yorkpsychology.bsky.social

I’m looking for a postdoc and RA for an ERC-funded project “SLEEPAWAY: Forgetting unwanted memories in sleep”. You’ll use MEG/EEG and fMRI to understand how the sleeping brain remembers and forgets. PLEASE REPOST 😊 Postdoc: tinyurl.com/vr5thp7s RA: tinyurl.com/ycyzkatc

Definition of sod's law: Return to netball after months off with a calf injury -felt great, super happy, just fitness to work on. Then in the last quarter... land horribly, roll ankle & feel all kinds of crunching & pain. A&E didn't even see me tonight so back in the AM to try & get an xray! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Just delivered my last lecture of the semester - where has the time gone?! Really enjoyed leading & teaching on the themes in neuroscience and neuropsychology module for our fab masters students - a great module to begin with since joining Leeds! 😄🧠

Made it to Liverpool and excited for the AVA Spring meeting tomorrow! Retreated to the waterfront earlier to avoid the pre-match chaos (big game at Anfield today). Beautiful day for a stroll around the dock!

I delivered the psychology taster lecture for the applicant visit day @universityofleeds.bsky.social today. Had fantastic questions from applicants & family members - really enjoyed the sessions. Getting the audience to find their blind spot is always a winner 😊 simple but effective demo!

New published Registered Report! People are talking a lot about 'psychological literacy' in psychology education, but how do psychology educators actually define this term? Is there agreement? & how is it integrated into practice? with @richharrisleeds.bsky.social ✨📝 psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-...

A one-year post doc opportunity on an ESRC-funded project at the University of Leeds. Details -> jobs.leeds.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx... Get in touch if you'd like to know more!

First lecture in the new job - done! Were there technical issues? Yes. Was I talking too fast due to a combination of being excited to talk about neuroanatomy and "first lecture in the new job" nerves? Also yes. Was it a nice and engaged group? Yes 😊

Woohoo! A non-academic achievement to celebrate. I just do it for a club biscuit, but I do enjoy receiving a certificate and a pin badge 😁🙌 blood donations have saved my Mum and my brother's lives so I'd be silly not to give back (especially given I am a rare type!)

🔔🗣️NEW #PhD opportunity in #Psychology and #Neuroscience with Prof Neil Roach (Nottingham) and me (Leicester): This ESRC-funded project aims to use individual differences to study the socially relevant components of time perception. Application deadline: 24 February

Did I blink and miss most of November? Time seems to be flying at the moment, & doesn't seem possible to have been at the University of Leeds for 6wks already! Really enjoying getting to know everyone, & excited for what's to come! Thank you to everyone who is helping me navigate the new role 😊

Post doc position available with us at Leeds on our ESRC-funded project on working memory and cognitive ageing, using behavioural measures, eye-tracking, and fNIRS! jobs.leeds.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx... Get in touch if you'd like to know more.

For those who don't follow me on other platforms, I wanted to share that I will be leaving the University of Huddersfield in 3wks. Most folks know the challenges we faced this year with the university restructuring & redundancies; this made me start to explore my options...🧵

Super excited for ECVP - my first international conference since 2019! Looking forward to presenting a new project in collaboration with @yorkpsychology.bsky.social @ccn-hudd.bsky.social @skeriresearch.bsky.social 😀 🧠📊 and catching up with familiar faces!

I'll be advertising a 2-year postdoc in a few weeks supported by an ESRC grant. An interesting project looking at the role of narratives in the learning and retention of educational material. Feel free to get in touch via email if you are interested! #neuroskyence #cognition #psychscisky

Delighted to say my first PhD student, Matt, passed his PhD viva last week! It's been a pleasure to be part of his supervision team, seeing him achieve so much, developing as a researcher & being an all round excellent human! I have definitely learned a lot in my first supervisory role!🥳🎉

So proud of our first MSc Cognition & Neuroscience graduates! Didn't get a chance to have photos with everyone, but so lovely to see everyone & celebrate together. Such a wonderful gift from a student - a handmade reminder of a brilliant year. 👏 🧠 it has been a pleasure being your course leader 😊
