Dorota Styk

I am an experimental psychologist and cognitive neuroscientist, whose work centres on understanding how people think, learn, adapt, and change. My PhD research examines how working memory is instantiated in the brain and the conditions under which its training transfers or fails to transfer to everyday learning, with a particular focus on individual differences in far transfer.

My academic work uses machine-learning driven experiments within NeuxScience®, a proprietary research platform, to investigate how changes in WM and other higher-order cognitive processes manifest in real-world behaviour. My long-term aim is translating these findings into evidence-based cognitive and psychotherapeutic interventions for people with neurodevelopmental conditions, neurological conditions, and reduced or impaired cognitive capacity.

I am a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS), American Psychological Association (APA), Canadian Psychological Association (CPA), British Neuroscience Association (BNA), Experimental Psychology Society (EPS), and British Association for Cognitive Neuroscience (BACN). These affiliations reflect my commitment to rigorous research, ethical practice, and ongoing professional development across psychology and neuroscience.

I hold qualifications in counselling and psychotherapy awarded by Counselling & Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body (CPCAB) and National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), on a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) accredited route.

I have completed over 267 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) certifications in psychology and cognitive neuroscience, clinical neurology and research ethics.
