Scent of Emotion: Investigating cross-modal associations between smell, sound, and vision and their impact on emotional processing across the lifespan
Multisensory experiences are an intrinsic part of how we perceive the world around us, with smells having a particularly strong ability to trigger emotions and vivid memories. Smells are deeply connected to memory and emotion, often eliciting feelings that appear instantly and unconsciously. Read more

Examining the neural correlates of motor control/learning with transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS)
Humans have an amazing capacity to perform a wide range of complex motor behaviours, but we have limited ability to assess the neural mechanisms which underpin them. Read more
Stress: the good, the bad, …
A little bit of stress in life is inevitable, and can actually be positive and promote wellbeing, for example by prompting you into action and helping you to meet your deadline. Read more

Cognitive maps for causal inference
It has long been appreciated that humans and other animals form internal models that encode environmental states and the relationship between those states. Read more
Sensory-inclusive environments for autistic people and others with sensory processing differences
Sensory processing differences have been reported in a range of conditions, including autism, ADHD and migraine. These sensory processing differences can have a huge impact on people's everyday lives. Read more
