I’m a post-doc researcher in the Prediction and Learning Lab broadly interested in computational psychiatry, i.e. using computational modelling to understand how different beliefs about the world drive different types of behaviour.

In my main project, I’m trying to leverage computational modelling of associative learning tasks to develop robust assays of uncertainty estimates. Our hope is then to understand how these estimates differ in mental ill health, and whether they might be malleable under pharmacological manipulation or stress.

I’m trying to get into blogging/sharing notes on miscellaneous topics which you can find here, but I wrote a fairly extensive blog about PhD applications here.
