Biography

Professor Simon Killcross’ main areas of research interest concern brain mechanisms underlying learning and cognition. He is Head of the School of Psychology at ��Ʊ. After gaining his UG degrees and PhD from the University Cambridge, he was a research Fellow at Magdalene College, Cambridge until 1996 when he took up a lectureship in Psychology at the University of York. He moved to a Senior Research Fellowship in the School of Psychology at Cardiff University in 1999, where he was subseqently promoted to Reader, Professor, and then served as Deputy Head of School from 2006. In 2009 he moved to take up his current position as Professor and Head of the School of Psychology at ��Ʊ Australia. He was reappointed for a second term in 2014 and a third term in 2019.
