Jasmin

Welcome Dr. Jasmin Kroll
We are excited to welcome Dr. Jasmin Kroll who just joined the lab. Her previous clinical and research experience has been on the association between cognitive functioning and mental health.  Jasmin’s work aimed to identify neonatal and neurocognitive biomarkers for psychiatric outcomes.

She was also involved in a prospective study of children born preterm, utilising neuroimaging, neuropsychology and clinical assessments to identify typical and atypical. This project also entailed a cognitive intervention to see if we can improve working memory and whether this can have a wider impact on social and emotional factors. Jasmin is also involved in teaching on the MSc Applied Neuroscience and Mental Health programme at King’s College, University of London.
