internal and external collaborations
Research on everyday memory phenomena is conducted in collaboration with colleagues at the University of Hertfordshire and other universities in the UK and worldwide. Some collaborations are long-standing, others have started more recently or are currently being set up to test interesting new ideas and theories. Most collaborators have also become good friends of mine, and I am greatly indebted to them for their insightful ideas, comments and discussions as well as advice in general.
Internal (Departmental) collaborations
Internal collaborations involve working on a variety of projects as well as joint PhD supervisions. Prof. Diana Kornbrot has been instrumental in securing external funding for joint projects on ageing and memory (prospective memory and autobiographical memory), and disseminating findings. Collaboration with Prof. Keith Laws involves projects studying mind-popping and auditory verbal hallucinations in schizophrenia. Past and ongoing research on involuntary autobiographical memories has benefitted from generous input from Joerg Schulz. More recent collaborations involve studying prospective memory in children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder with Dr. Nuala Ryder and involuntary semantic memories or mind-pops with Dr. Sue Anthony.
LOCAL NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE (NHS) COLLABORATIONS
These projects involve studying people with Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia and their carers (Prof. Kunle Ashaye, Steve Davies, and several others), auditory hallucinations in early course psychosis (Dr. David Raune) and intrusive memories in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (Prof. Jamie Hacker Hughes).
UK Collaborations

Prof. Chris Brewin, University College London (UCL)
Collaboration with Chris started fairly recently and involves studying repetitive intrusive memories of negative events as and when they occur in everyday life, using a diary method. From February 2013, we also co-supervise a PhD student at the University of Hertfordshire (Ben Plimpton).

Dr. James Erskine, St.George's, University of London
James is a former PhD student who I continue to work with on several projects investigating thought suppression, effects of rehearsal and reminders on prospective memory, flashbulb memories, positivity effect and psychological well being in old age.

Dr. Ruth Ford, Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge
Collaboration with Ruth involves studying prospective memory in children, and its relation to metamemory and future thinking. In September 2013, Ruth moved to Anglia Ruskin University from Griffith University (Australia). This move will intensify our efforts to obtain external funding for studying the development of prospective memory in young children.

International collaborators

Prof. Gilles Einstein, Furman University, South Carolina, US
Gilles and I are in a process of setting up a collaboration that will investigate a role of incidental reminders and rehearsal on prospective memory. We are currently discussing ideas and running pilot studies which should result in a joint proposal for external funding and a systematic programme of research on this topic.

Prof. Matthias Kliegel, University of Geneva, Switzerland
Collaboration with Matthias has been ongoing since 2007 and involves working on projects examining effects of age on prospective memory and involuntary autobiographical memories. In near future, subject to external funding, we will be working together on a large scale project examining effects of age on everyday memory errors and prospective memory.

Dr. Agnieszka Niedźwieńska, Jagellonian Univesity, Krakow, Poland
Agnieszka has been awarded Marie Curie Incoming Fellowship to work on a collaborative project at the University of Hertfordshire on the effects of Mild Cognitive Impairment on prospective memory and involuntary autobiographical memories. The project started in October 2014 and will end in March 2016. For more information about this project and its main
findings, please visit the PMinMCI website.

Prof. Peter Rendell, Australian Catholic University
Peter and Matthias Kliegel have been instrumental in helping to put together a joint proposal for external funding to study so called prospective memory and ageing paradox. If successful, the project will examine effects of age on prospective memory and involuntary autobiographical memories in and outside the laboratory using novel methods of assessment.
