The first is human memory, specifically memory for sequences, in relation to which he is engaged in a major programme of joint research with colleagues in Louvain and Gent. The second is pro-environmental behaviour change: he has been, and continues to be, involved in a number of innovative projects, in particular the Cube Project (www.cubeproject.org.uk).

He teaches Cognitive Psychology and is experienced in giving public presentations to a variety of audiences.

• A variety of projects relating to carbon-emission reduction in business (EASIER Project, 2009-12), leisure (SHARE - Small Hotels Action to Reduce Emissions, 2010-11), and communities (AGILE -Accelerating Green Informal LEarning, 2009-10).
