My work focuses on cognitive aging and cognitive impairments, such as dementia and delirium.  I lead the Cognitive Ageing and Impairment Neurosciences (CAIN) laboratory with A/Prof Tobias Loetscher, which is part of the BBB Research Centre.
I am particularly interested in vascular contributions to cognitive aging, the neurophysiology and neuropsychology of delirium, and social cognitive aging.  Our lab works with local councils to develop evidence-based dementia education programs for primary school children and wellbeing workshop materials for older adults.  I am passionate about equity and diversity in science and am involved in a number of community and school science programs.
I am currently a Past president of the Australasian Cognitive Neuroscience Society (https://www.acns.org.au/).
Prior to joining UniSA in 2011, I held post-doctoral positions at the University of Cambridge (2007-11).
