| Dr Jennifer Ferrar |
I was awarded a PhD in 2018, which investigated thirst and motives for sweet beverage consumption. I currently work in the Tobacco and Alcohol Research Group (TARG), as a Senior Research Associate - https://www.bristol.ac.uk/people/person/Jennifer-Ferrar-02c9da26-73d7-4311-b81a-6ab067b1c842/

| Dr Jess Fielding |
While with the NBU, I worked as a post-doc on a BBSRC-DRINC funded grant researching nudging behaviour. |
| Dr Greg Keenan |
PhD 2016. He focused on focused on the psychobiology of human and animal food choice and intake |
| Dr Andreas Jarvstad |
Research Associate, University of Bristol, May 2012 – Aug 2015 - Now Senior Lecturer at City University |
| Dr Matt Bosworth |
I worked as a Research Support Assistant in the NBU (2013 to 2015) on a BBSRC-LINK funded project entitled "Eating topography; the key to reducing energy intake in humans?" |
| Dr Ashley Martin |
I completed a post-doc in the NBU during 2013-2015, working on a BBSRC-funded project exploring whether dietary variety disrupts our ability to estimate the energy content and satiating quality of food (via inconsistent flavor-nutrient associations). I also investigated the role of sweet taste in human dietary behavior, focusing on 'sweet-calorie' learning and the effects of sweeteners on appetite control. |
| Dr Rose Oldham Cooper |
I undertook a Ph.D. exploring the development of expectations about a foods' capacity to provide immediate fullness (satiation) and satiety (relief from hunger) in the NBU between 2009 and 2013, after completing a B.Sc. in Experimental Psychology in the same department (2006-2009). |
| Dr Charlotte Hardman |
I worked in the NBU from 2009 to 2013 as an independent Research Associate. During this time, I worked on a variety of projects that explored hedonic and motivational components of appetite and eating behaviour. My work ranged from laboratory studies (e.g., experimental manipulation of the human dopaminergic system) to large-scale population studies (e.g., examining genetic predictors of obesity in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children). I am now a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Psychological Sciences at the University of Liverpool. Personal webpage. Follow on Twitter: @CharlotteHardm3 |
| Vanessa Herbert |
I completed an M.Sc. project with the NBU which investigated the effect of acute tyrosine/phenylalanine depletion on food reward and response inhibition. I then went on to work as a research support assistant on two projects; a project exploring the role of memory processes in the acceptance of reduced-salt foods and also a BBSRC-DRINC funded project into expected satiety and portion control. |
| Dr Laura Wilkinson |
I undertook my B.Sc. project on the topic of flavour-nutrient learning, a Research Support Assistant post (BBSRC-DRINC grant) investigating determinants of portion size and finally, my Ph.D. in the NBU. For my Ph.D., I conducted research on the mechanism(s) underpinning ‘Sensory specific satiety’. I received a Faculty of Science commendation for this work. Currently, I am a Senior Lecturer in Psychology at Swansea University. Personal webpage. Follow on twitter: @LLWSwansea |
| Dr Jess Smith |
I completed a Ph.D. on the effects of two components of tea, caffeine and theanine, on anxiety within the Nutrition and Behaviour Unit (2007-2011). As a postdoctorate, I was involved in research projects on the cognitive performance effects of caffeine (GlaxoSmithKline), satiety effects of sugar-containing drinks (Sugar Nutrition) and an fMRI study exploring mechanisms of pharmacological interventions. |
| Dr Stephanie Fay |
I was a research assistant on the BBSRC-DRINC funded project into expected satiety and portion control. |
| Dr Ella Hinton |
While with the NBU, I worked as a post-doc on a BBSRC-DRINC funded grant researching factors which influence portion size and satiety. I am now based in the Bristol Medical School where I am understanding the neuroregulation of appetite and obesity by conducting studies in people with genetic or acquired conditions that affect energy balance, people with obesity and healthy volunteers. |
