Claire is Project Director and Lead Scientist for the Neureka App and The Gillan Lab.  Claire and her team take a unique approach to studying brain health by combining mobile technology with citizen science to help create a clearer picture of what keeps the brain healthy. A key goal for this research is to develop objective tests that can be used to understand, predict and prevent disorders of the mind. 

Anna is a Research Manager at The Neureka Project. She is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the project, as well as supporting ongoing Neureka research. Anna has a strong interest in science communication and assists in the expansion and communication of results from The Neureka Project to the public, researchers, and clinicians across the world.

Kelly is conducting her PhD under the supervision of Dr Claire Gillan as part of the ERC funded ‘Making and Breaking a Habit’ project. Her research will use smartphone-based assessments, electrophysiology, and causal manipulation in an attempt to uncover how habits form, how they interact with goal-directed capacity, and how they relate to mental health symptomatology.

Vanessa is a postdoctoral researcher on The Neureka Project. Her goal is to build more appropriate models of individual behavior in key dimensions of cognition which can (a) help to elucidate neurobiological mechanisms driving psychiatric disorders and (b) help to develop predictive measures to identify individuals at risk and tailor treatment.

Sol is a postdoctoral researcher working on the Latin American version of our app. Her research focuses on understanding dementia, loneliness, aging, and social cognition, bringing valuable insights to improve mental health care in these areas.

Paveen is a PhD student working on Neureka. His research explores the development and worsening of psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) by analyzing active and passive smartphone data, offering insights into the environmental, behavioural, and cognitive factors involved in PLEs.

Mahmoud is a PhD student working on our app, focusing on using passive data to study dementia with Lewy bodies. His research aims to uncover patterns and insights related to this condition, contributing to a better understanding of its progression and effects.

With a background in App development and game design, Eoghan is the Software Developer on The Neureka Project and is responsible for the application build, user interface and user experience. 

Kartik is our back-end Software Developer on The Neureka Project. Kartik responsible for ensuring our apps run smoothly behind the scenes. He manages data flow, server performance, and system security to keep everything functioning seamlessly.
