Natasha Burns

Natasha Burns is a Lecturer in Psychology at Bournemouth University, affiliated with the Faculty of Science and Technology. She holds a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience from Swansea University, earned in 2020.

• BSc in Psychology (2019), Swansea University
• MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience (2020), Swansea University

Her research focuses on Cognitive Neuroscience, with specialization in Neuroplasticity, Neurodegeneration, and Response Inhibition. She employs advanced neuroimaging techniques such as fMRI, structural MRI, and EEG to study neural mechanisms related to aging and cognitive control.

Natasha's recent publications explore age-related biases in cognitive processes, particularly response inhibition. Her work integrates computational and behavioral approaches to understand compensatory strategies in neurodegenerative contexts.
