About

Steve gained his Psychology PhD in 2006 from the Human Psychopharmacology Unit at the University of Sussex, UK. After that he spent over ten years working on a diverse range of applied projects in the UK and Ireland.

Since moving to Australian in 2012 his research efforts have been primarily focused on diabetes, specifically the evaluation of insulin pumps for people with type 1 diabetes. This research builds upon his previous work in the UK, such as sleep assessment and driver performance.
