BSc Hons Psychology, University of Stirling
I have been working as a research fellow within the Department since January 2001. I moved to part-time contract research work in February 2005 when I started my PhD. I am now in my final year investigating how we understand and support people with learning disabilities who also have a diagnosis of personality disorder. This study is supported by the Chief Scientists Office.
