About me and this site
I am a Reader in Neuroscience at the Institute of Psychology, Psychiatry and Neuroscience, part of King s College London where I am heavily involved in teaching and research. Currently I teach at all levels of the undergraduate degree in Psychology, delivering an introductory Biological Psychology module, a second year module on Contemporary Issues in Neuroscience and a final year module teaching how to teach in Higher Education. I am a principal fellow of the HEA and have received of teaching awards.
My primary research focuses on models of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and mechanisms of action of therapeutic drugs in this condition as well as alternative treatments. I have conducted research at Sheffield University, Oxford University and the Open University. I also conduct a range of pedagogic research, mainly focused on technology enhanced learning.
I am using this site as a place to express my own views on education more generally. Sometimes these views are based on papers or books I have read or my own experiences teaching.
When I am not working I can normally be found running and tweeting. If you would like to follow me on Twitter you can find me @EllieJane1980 but note that my tweets focus on running and education in equal measure!
