Poppy Sharp defends her PhD dissertation – with honors!

Poppy successfully defended her PhD at the CIMEC in Rovereto, Italy, on April 5th, 2019.

Poppy’s work examines the role of spatial attention on temporal processing of visual stimuli. Two papers are available here on the website and another is in preparation.

Poppy clearly impressed her committee, resulting in a prestigious cum laude notation to her PhD!

Poppy’s dissertation work was co-supervised by Clayton Hickey and David Melcher, and we look suitably proud in the attached photo.

Congratulations Poppy!
