Holly is a research assistant with the SPL Trauma Group, working under the mentorship of Dr. Talmon. She is currently finishing her Psychology PhD at Brunel University London. She is interested in how childhood trauma impacts how we recognise emotions across various situations, with a focus on using more realistic methods (e.g., moving or audio-visual emotional expressions). Outside of research, Holly enjoys reading, catching up with friends, and spending time with family, especially her niece and nephew.
