Research

Research in the human sciences broadens and deepens our understanding of human nature and underpins medical and technological advance.

 

As a former academic psychologist, my research interests centred around two main themes: occupational health psychology and evolutionary psychology.

I supervised six doctoral research students who successfully completed their PhDs.  These were mostly co-supervised by my friend and colleague Professor Trevor Hussey, with the degrees awarded by Brunel University.
