Associate Professor, Department of Psychology, University of Bath I am a developmental psychologist and head of the Statistical Analysis of NeuroDevelopment and Psychopathology in Infants and Toddlers (SANDPIT) Lab. My research applies statistical modelling to characterise typical and atypical developmental pathways. I am particularly interested in how environmental factors such as parenting and touchscreen use might shape children’s cognitive development, and how we can develop early interventions to enhance infants’ early environment.
