Biography
I am a third year PhD student in the Department of Psychology and the Ageing and Dementia Research Centre, supervised by Jan Wiener, Tim Slattery and Sebastien Miellet. My research focuses on spatial navigation ability in typical and atypical ageing, with a specific focus on route learning.
