Darren Rhodes
Lecturer in Cognitive Psychology and Environmental Temporal Cognition Lab Director, Keele University, Keele University
Darren Rhodes is a cognitive computational neuroscientist and Director of the Environmental Temporal Cognition Lab at Keele University, United Kingdom. His primary research explores how humans perceive time, particularly in extreme environments, alongside investigations into multi-sensory processing and the nature of consciousness. The lab’s research spans Arctic, desert, and space-analog settings to understand how environmental extremes shape temporal perception and cognitive processes.
Darren uses psychophysical techniques and cognitive computational models to uncover the perceptual mechanisms underpinning our experience of time, and to develop predictive frameworks for understanding human adaptation in challenging conditions. His research has applications for improving well-being in polar regions, astronaut training, and other extreme environments.
He is committed to transparent research processes and advocates for open science. Darren actively works to reform academic practices toward openness, both through his research and in his teaching, encouraging future researchers to adopt more transparent methodologies.
Darren obtained his PhD from the Centre for Computational Neuroscience and Cognitive Robotics at the University of Birmingham under the supervision of Dr. Max Di Luca. He then worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Sackler Centre for Consciousness Science, under Prof. Anil Seth, contributing to the ERC TIMESTORM Project. Prior to joining Keele, he served as a senior lecturer in psychology and statistics at Nottingham Trent University.

Darren Ruddell
Associate Professor of Spatial Sciences, University of Southern California
Darren M. Ruddell, Ph.D., is Associate Professor (Teaching) and Director of Graduate Studies at the Spatial Sciences Institute of the University of Southern California Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences.
The overarching focus of Ruddell’s research is climate and society, an expanding area in global change studies, which incorporates socio-ecological interactions across multiple scales of analysis. Ruddell is particularly interested in the dynamic relationship between human development and the modification of native landscapes which are altering physical processes, as witnessed in rising global temperatures and urban heat islands (UHI), and the subsequent impacts that changing environmental systems pose on human health and security. While a changing climate can offer more favorable conditions for human development in some parts of the world, changes in natural processes are increasingly threatening human security at local and regional scales as natural hazards and extreme weather events have become more frequent, more intense, and longer lasting.
Ruddell teaches and develops curricula in the Spatial Sciences Institute’s Human Security and Geospatial Intelligence (HSGI) academic programs offered at the undergraduate and graduate level. He has developed expertise in geographic information science and associated technologies to acquire, organize, analyze, model, and visualize spatial data. As an educator, he seeks to help students develop the critical and spatial thinking skills required to effectively manage and deploy these technologies in diverse scenarios to produce spatially-informed and scientifically sound results. He has been a leader in both developing and applying innovative pedagogical approaches in the fields of geodesign and Human Security and Geospatial Intelligence and implementing and advancing the delivery of course content in mixed modalities to increase access and user experience in synchronous and asynchronous settings.
Ruddell has performed extensive service to USC where he served as the Chair of the USC Academic Senate Sustainability Committee which advanced sustainability initiatives across the university in addition to serving as President of the Dornsife College Faculty Council. He currently serves on the editorial board of the International Journal of Sustainable Land Use and Urban Planning.
Ruddell is certified as a Geographic Information Science Professional (GISP) by the Geographic Information Science Certification Institute (GISCI).
