Biography

Dr Jo Cutler is a Wellcome Trust Early Career Research Fellow in the Centre for Human Brain Health at the University of Birmingham. Before this, she was a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Social Decision Neuroscience Lab with Professor Patricia Lockwood at the University of Oxford then the University of Birmingham.

Research interests

Jo is interested in how we make choices to help other people and then learn about our actions that help. Her research also investigates whether people are interested in what is happening to others, how these social decisions change across the lifespan, and their neural mechanisms. To answer these questions, Jo uses tools from psychology and neuroscience including fMRI, computational neurology, large international datasets, novel tasks, and computational modelling.
