Biography

Annette studied Psychology and Biology at the University of Konstanz where she completed her PhD in Summer 1998. In 2000, she took up a lectureship at the University of Liverpool and was promoted to reader in 2002. In autumn 2003 she took up a chair in Cognitive Neuroscience at Surrey University and became head of the Psychology department in 2008. 

Research Interests

My research focuses on clinical neuroscience brain plasticity with particular emphasis on functional brain organization, neurological rehabilitation, and most recently sleep. Asecond strand of studies aims to understand the neuromodulatory effects of glucose and hormones on cognition.
