PhD Student
Profile
Biography
In 2017, I received my BSc in Speech and Language Sciences from The University of Sheffield. Whilst I was in my final year at University, I also worked as a Research Assistant for Dr Yael Benn (Manchester Metropolitan University) on a project exploring language and feature- based categorisation. Following this, I completed my MSc in Clinical Cognitive Neuroscience at Sheffield Hallam University. During this, I worked on a project exploring word recognition processes in speakers of morphologically rich and shallow languages. In 2020, I joined the Department of Psychology at The University of York, as a PhD student. My current work focusses on word retrieval and production processes in healthy ageing. In particular, my PhD is centred on how semantic and cognitive processes interact with age in spoken contexts, to affect the retrieval of words.
