Previous Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Ruth was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the SDN lab between 2020-2021, funded by an Economic and Social Research Council Fellowship. She is now a Postdoctoral researcher in the SCAN lab at the University of Birmingham and is an associate member of the SDN lab. Ruth completed her PhD at the University of Birmingham, where she used machine learning approaches to understand how youths with conduct disorder differ according to their levels of callous-unemotional traits. Her research focused on differences in parenting, grey matter volume, and emotion recognition abilities in youths with conduct disorder and high versus low levels of callous-unemotional traits. She also holds a BSc from the University of Birmingham and an MSc from University College London/Yale University. Ruth is broadly interested in using computational modelling and machine learning methods to better understand the development of prosocial and antisocial behaviour across the lifespan.
