Pippa Watson
DPhil student
I am a DPhil student at the Department of Psychiatry, University of Oxford at Dementias Platform UK (DPUK) under the supervision of Prof Sarah Bauermeister, Dr Ivan Koychev, and Prof John Gallacher. My research focuses on investigating the role of lifestyle factors in early, mid, and later life in SuperAgers (individuals who show superior cognitive abilities in later life). My DPhil research is jointly funded by the Clarendon Fund, and the Department of Psychiatry studentship.
Before starting my DPhil, I worked as a Research Assistant with DPUK focusing on data curation. I also hold an MSc in Psychological Research from the University of Oxford and a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from UCL.
