Postdoctoral Scholar in Fisheries and Wildlife, University of Stirling

I pull together research from different disciplines to examine how we can more effectively design interventions to change peoples' environmental behaviours. Currently I'm investigating the social diffusion of dietary behaviours. I.E., if one person stops eating meat, how does that affect the behaviours of their friends and family? Previous research has focussed on interactive games a behaviour change and research tool, and demand reduction in the wildlife trade.
