I am the co-ordinator of the Postgraduate Training Programs in Clinical Neuropsychology and also a registered Clinical Neuropsychologist and hold a sessional appointment in the Psychology Department, Caulfield General Medical Centre.
My research focus relates to the consequences of neuropsychological impairment for the individual and family, using a framework of cognitive neuropsychology and memory.
