Biography
Laura completed her PhD in Psychology, Education and Neuroscience from the University of Cambridge in 2014. She then worked as a post-doctoral researcher in the Cambridge Prosociality and Well-Being Lab where she looked at the relationship between emotions and well-being.
Laura is now a principal academic at Bournemouth University, where she works on understanding the role of emotions in mental health and illness, including eating disorders. She regularly talks to the radio to disseminate her work. For instance, she co-developed an emotion and well-being series for BBC radio Solent. One of her research projects funded by the British Academy/Leverhulme uses EEG to investigate the neural basis of emotion processing and regulation in eating disorders. She has also received funding by the NIHR to develop an intervention to help people with eating disorders better understand and manage their emotions. She also has a stream of work looking at the link between autism and eating disorders, as well as causes for orthorexia nervosa... She is currently looking for PhD students to supervise in these areas.
