Greg Neil

Greg Neil is a Research Fellow at Solent University, serving as the Social Sciences and Nursing Research Group Convenor and a member of the Wellbeing and Applied Research in Psychology (WARP) team. He holds a PhD from the University of Southampton (2011), focusing on bridging learning and memory theories. His research spans forensic psychology, cognitive processes, biometrics, and metacognition, with a focus on memory accuracy in legal contexts, vocal and facial recognition, and implicit learning models. He employs signal detection theory and ROC analysis in his methodologies.

Key areas of research include eyewitness testimony reliability, vocal identity processing challenges, and the application of machine learning in biometric studies. Collaborative projects like the SuperIdentity initiative highlight his work in multimodal biometric systems and cybersecurity. His publications (20+ articles) reflect contributions to forensic science, cognitive psychology, and interdisciplinary cybersecurity analysis.

Neil’s work emphasizes the intersection of human and computational approaches to recognition tasks, such as iris identification and hand dimension analysis. His findings on misinformation effects on memory and judgment underscore contributions to applied psychology and legal evidence evaluation.
