Biography

Glyn Humphreys was the Watts Professor of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford, UK prior to his passing in 2016. Throughout his distinguished career, Professor Humphreys made significant contributions to the understanding of cognitive impairments, particularly those arising after brain injury. Through a combination of rigorous research and clinical insight, Professor Humphreys addressed critical issues surrounding the diagnosis and management of these impairments. His efforts significantly shaped both the clinical practices used to support individuals with cognitive deficits and the theoretical frameworks underpinning the field.

Jane Riddoch was a Professorial Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, UK prior to her retirement in 2014. Her research focused on visual disorders such as agnosia and optic aphasia, as well as disorders of attention including neglect and extinction. She also investigated action-related conditions, notably apraxia and action disorganisation syndrome. Her commitment to neuropsychological rehabilitation was evident in her efforts to translate research findings into practical strategies for improving patient care and supporting recovery.
