Research interests
My research uses cognitiv and neuroscience approaches to investigate the strengths (e.g. sensory and perceptual processing, attention to detail, deliberation etc.) and difficulties (emotion processing, empathy, gaze processing, intuition etc.) in autism and to use the knowledge from the research to develop programmes to help the autistic community. This includes programmes designed to help the transitions into university and from university into employment, and to help support students with autism at university.
