Our new publication based on collaboration between #HullUniversity and #BirminghamNewmanUniversity
So much for #Schools, #Teachers and #Headteachers to engage with. Brilliant working partnership with Dr Mark A. Minott and Dr Angel Urbina Garcia. Looking forward to the next phase of the project.
New paper! 🚨
Does studying psychology change how people think about psychology (even at an intuitive level)? 🤔
We tracked students across their degree and found shifts in their beliefs about the bases of psychological phenomena and their scientific explainability.

A vibrant, professional color portrait of Paula T. Hammond, the distinguished American chemical engineer, materials scientist, and MIT Institute Professor, captured in 2023. She sits with arms crossed in a relaxed yet confident pose against a warm, softly lit dark background, exuding warmth, intelligence, and quiet authority. Dr. Hammond, a Black woman with short, neatly styled dark hair and wears elegant maroon cat-eye glasses that frame her bright, engaging eyes and welcoming smile. She is dressed in a rich orange halter-neck blouse with a draped bow at the neckline, complemented by gold jewelry: a large bracelet on one wrist, a delicate watch on the other, and a prominent ring on her right hand. The warm lighting highlights her radiant expression and the subtle texture of her outfit, conveying a sense of approachability and deep expertise. The image captures her as a trailblazing leader in nanoscale materials engineering—pioneering layer-by-layer assembly for targeted drug delivery in cancer treatment, tissue regeneration, and advanced energy storage—while serving as Dean of MIT's School of Engineering and recipient of the 2025 National Medal of Technology and Innovation. The portrait radiates inspiration, resilience, and the joy of scientific discovery.
Chemical engineer Paula Hammond creates super-thin nanoparticles (1,000X smaller than the width of a human hair) by stacking layers of materials--layers that can be programmed to deliver cancer drugs, improve energy storage in batteries & more.
Dean, School of Engineering at MIT #WomenInSTEM #BHM
