Biography

I am an Experimental Psychologist at the University of Manchester interested in experimental pragmatics, open science, and reproducible research. I am the University of Manchester Open and Reproducible Research Lead.

My current research projects examine how people understand data visualisations, how readers understand meaning that is implied by a linguistic utterance (rather than that which is conveyed explicitly), the mechanisms by which conditional information is processed and mentally represented, and (more generally) how meaning is integrated across sentences.

I teach data science and statistical methods to students in Psychology and Biological Sciences with an emphasis on R, open research, and reproducibility.
