This is literally a dream come true getting this article published in the Psychologist. We are both really passionate about the topic, and hope that you like it 😊: #designpsychology #PhD #servicedesign #productdesign #designleadership @OUGradSch

My usual highlights for service co-design week-notes 80. Rounded the week off by having the pleasure of giving a talk on ‘the use of psychology in human centred design’. Thank you to the @BPSOfficial for the opportunity. @OUGradSch @OU_STEM #phdlife #designleadership

So sad to have seen this late last night. He has a profound impact on me since I first read his work in the early 2000s. He was also caring and compassionate, and will be much missed by his family and the psychology community @BPSOfficial #PhDlife #psychology #designingjustice
