I study how attention and short-term memory skills develop and change across the lifespan. I am particularly interested in how children's attention and short-term memory skills support their learning in the classroom (

I also have an interest in encouraging engagement and participation in science through out-of-school activities such as Summer Scientist Week
https://nottingham.ac.uk/go/science) and Discoveroos After School Club.
