About me

I began my career as a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Psychiatry in Munich. The Max Planck for Psychiatry encouraged collaboration between basic and clinical neurosciences in understanding the effects of brain injury - a model that influenced my subsequent work. After coming to Stirling I collaborated with colleagues at the Institute of Neurological Sciences in Glasgow, and was an Honorary Senior Research Fellow in Neurosurgery.I was Head of Psychology at Stirling for six years, and have been Professor of Psychology since 1998. I have strong international links, with a current focus on outcomes and quality of life after brain injury.

Research

I am a neuropsychologist with a particular interest in the consequences of traumatic brain injuries. I studied the neuroimaging correlates of changes in cognition and function in collaboration with colleagues in Neurosurgery, Neuroradiology, and Clinical Physics at the University of Glasgow. I have a broad interest in neuropsychological assessment, and a particular focus on outcomes after brain injury. My work has included the design of structured interviews for the Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE), and the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), construction of a test of short-term visual memory, and development of novel assessments of quality of life after brain injury (the QOLIBRI scales). My current research continues to focus on brain injury outcomes, particularly cognitive changes, functional outcome, and quality of life.
