About
Overview
Dr. Themis Karaminis joined City, University of London in December 2023 as a Lecturer in Psychology. His research primarily focuses on individual differences in cognitive development and learning, employing experimental and computational methodologies. Dr. Karaminis originally comes from a background in teaching, with specific expertise in informatics for secondary and further education. He transitioned to the field of developmental psychology and academia after completing an MSc in Cognitive Science at the University of Edinburgh and a PhD at Birkbeck, where he specialized in atypical language development.
Following his doctoral studies, Dr. Karaminis held three postdoctoral research positions. He worked at the UCL Institute of Education, exploring visual perception in autism; at the Universities of Plymouth and Oxford, investigating bilingual lexical development; and at Radboud University in the Netherlands, focusing on speech perception. Prior to joining City, University of London, he held a Senior Lecturer position at Edge Hill University, where he also served as a Programme Leader for the BSc(Hons) in Psychology,
