Research interests
My research interests are best summarised as the quantitative exploration of development, both within individuals and in populations. Broadly, I investigate how affective and cognitive faculties impact each other, and how they are affected by the environment. I triangulate problems with narrowly focussed experiments aided by computational models of behaviour, machine learning to find complex patterns in large secondary datasets, and agent-based population simulations.
