Dr Ali Tomlin

Senior Lecturer in Psychology

I am a chartered psychologist with the BPS, and a senior lecturer in the School of Psychology at the University of Bedfordshire.

I teach cognitive and biological psychology at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, and have link tutor responsibility for the FdA Psychology and Crime at Bedford College.

My research interests include cognition, mood and anxiety, and I am part of a research group which has recently received funding to investigate post-viral cognitive change.
