2015听 听 PhD, UNSW Sydney听
I am a behavioural neuroscientist and experimental psychologist at UNSW School of Psychology. I recevied my PhD from UNSW School of Psychology in 2015.
My research seeks to understand the psychology and neurobiology of motivated learning, decision-making, and behaviour. I am particularly interested in how we learn and make decisions about actions with negative consequences ("punishment learning").
