I am an Associate Professor in the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Bristol (UK), where I currently teach Neuroscience and Physiology to undergraduate Biology students. After many years undertaking laboratory-based research I realised that my passion is rooted in Education and I have active interests in science outreach and pedagogic research. My educational research projects include developing effective and sustainable ‘communities of practice’ in higher education, enhancing student-led collaborative and social learning within and beyond the classroom, and innovations in assessment and feedback. As an OED Trustee for the SEB, I look forward to organising events and workshops to promote sharing of best practice in teaching and learning, and educational research.
