Education

I am a Psychology PhD student at University of Kent funded by the Eastern ARC, an initiative in which three different UK universities – the University of Essex, the University of East Anglia and the University of Kent - came together for collaboration, research and training across three different fields: digital humanities, synthetic biology and quantitative social sciences. My role is to do research on the social psychological and organisational consequences of ageism as well as to investigate mindfulness as a way to counteract age discrimination, under the supervision of Dr Hannah Swift.
