About the Speakers
Jo Evershed works as a Research Specialist at Gorilla Experiment Builder. She completed her degree in Mathematics, Computer Science and Cognitive Science at the University of Grenoble (France), before obtaining her PhD in Cognitive Psychology from the University of Leeds (UK) in 2022. Her thesis, which examined the impact of bilingualism and ageing on the communication between the cerebral hemispheres, has shown her the benefits of online research and she decided to join Gorilla to work on improving behavioral science as a whole.
Clare Renshaw is the Communications Lead at Gorilla Experiment Builder, and runs the Gorilla Grants program. She completed her degree in Psychology at the University of Warwick. She also holds an MSc in Applied Psychology and Economic Behaviour from the University of Bath, where she would have saved a lot of stress if she could have used Gorilla for her thesis project on whether defaults are mediated by organisational trust!
Federica Ruzzante is a PhD candidate in Cognitive Neuroscience at IMT Lucca, and her research explores the intersection of decision-making, reasoning, and social media. As both a behavioral scientist and a frequent social media user, she studies how social media platforms influence cognitive processes, specifically in the context of decision-making. We know that cognitive biases play a huge role in our everyday choices, but do these biases become even stronger in the fast-paced world of social media? And if they do, what are the underlying mechanisms behind this amplification?
Yue Li is a PhD candidate at Purdue University and the 2023 recipient of the Gorilla and Prolific Research Grant. Her dissertation research focuses on English language production, using a picture-based elicitation methodology fully implemented on the Gorilla platform.
