About
I graduated from the University of Glasgow in 2010 with an MA (Hons) in Psychology. I am currently undertaking an MSc in Brain Imaging.
I am interested in Adolsecent Brain Development and why adolescents have such high levels of risk propensity. Using MRI I'm planning to map out the structural development of the striatum through early, middle and late adolescence. I will examine whether this correlates with engagement in risky behaviour.
I am currently testing and recruiting participants aged 7-17 years of age. A website describing our experiment further is listed below:
