Individually my research covers the perception of effort and how it is affected by the pain experience on a psychophysiological level.
Linked to that, I then explore the behavioural and cognitive changes in self-regulation due to pain.
As a group, we explore the use of virtual reality and eye-tracking with their ability to enhance performance across sport, military, aviation, and clinical settings.
As a new member of my team, the aim is to bridge the pain research and eye-tracking/virtual reality research already underway.

Currently, I am a trial manager on a UKRI Turing AI Acceleration Fellowship Project, where I am responsible for planning and running EEG-based BCI research trials – which primarily includes trials with patients who have prolonged disorders of consciousness and/or physical impairments resulting from injury or disease. My main area of research has a focus on brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies.

- Virtual reality
Using virtual reality to understand how body representation is distorted in chronic pain and also how VR can be used to rehabilitate and alter body perception to decrease pain.
