I completed my PhD at Edinburgh in May 2013. My thesis was on the nature of delusions. I have since been a postdoc at Durham University, working on a large interdisciplinary project where I have been using predictive processing to make sense of the phenomenon of hearing voices. I plan to apply predictive processing to the cognition of language, other minds, and to the phenomenon of inner speech. My other research interests include the influence of emotion on perception, and the way in which predictive processing can shed light on the nature and phenomenology of conscious perceptual experience.
