个人简介
I am particularly interested in how the growing evidence in different areas of science and clinical practice can be put together: how genetics and brain development lead to developmental differences expressed as differences in cognition and sensory processing, and how these impact on the lives and experiences of patients and their families. My PhD research was studying candidate genes in schizophrenia, bringing together genotypes, neurological symptoms and psychiatric symptoms: we found increased “triplet repeat” genes in patients with schizophrenia, for example.
Over the last few years my research has focused on three areas: firstly the assessment and investigation of auditory processing differences in autism spectrum disorders, and their relationship to language differences and clinical symptoms, with the Laboratory for Research in Autism and the Auditory Perception group in the Department of Experimental Psychology; secondly, the genetics of autism and familial traits in autism, with the International Molecular Genetics Study of Autism Consortium; psycho-oncology (the specialty of mental health and cognition in people with cancer. In all these areas I aim to integrate different scientific disciplines and levels of explanation, and bring this approach to all my research presentations and development activities. I recently published a chapter on “Medically Unexplained Symptoms in Children”, using this approach.
