Eleanor Hyde

PhD Student & Graduate Teaching Assistant
I am a Cognitive Psychologist and part-time PhD student in my fourth year, with a focus on cognitive plasticity. My supervisor is Professor Claudia von Bastian, and I am a member of the Cognitive Ability and Plasticity Lab.
My research focuses on how cognitive training and everyday activites can influence and relate to cognitive performance. I'm especially interested in how these mechanisms play out across the lifespan and in video game players.
In addition to my doctoral research, I have gained substantial experience in teaching and supervision, working closely with both undergraduate and postgraduate students. I have also worked as a Research Associate, where I coordinated data collection for a large-scale cognitive training study spanning the lifespan.
