Dr Robin Murphy

Robin obtained his undergraduate degree at Queen's University in Ontario Canada. He then spent a year as a research/therapy assistant at a federal penitentiary in Canada. He then moved to Montreal and completed an MA and PhD at McGill in animal learning under Dr. A.G. Baker. While finishing his dissertation he took up a lectureship at the University of Hertfordshire where he was prior to joining the Psychology Department at UCL in 2003.

Robin's major areas of interest are in animal learning and behaviour and in particular associative explanations of the animal mind and the workings of the brain. He is also interested in the application of animal models to human data. Currently he has projects involving animal correlation learning and sequence learning as well as research designed to explore human depression, negative stereotype formation and folk understanding of causation.
