Dr Katharina Kaduk

Senior Research Associate in Developmental Neuroscience

Research Overview

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher on the Impact of Children's Auditory Technology (iCAT) Longitudinal Project at Lancaster University, funded by UKRI. I hold a PhD in Psychology with a specialisation in Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience and have over a decade of experience in developmental research, EEG methodology, and public engagement.

For the past nine years, I have managed the Infant and Child Development Research Unit at Lancaster University, supporting researchers and visiting families. Alongside this, I served as the Engagement Officer for the LuCiD Centre, where I developed expertise in impact and outreach activities.

My PhD research, completed through the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, explored how early language development emerges from interpreting the content of actions in infancy. I am committed to contributing to meaningful research while continuing to learn and develop in my field.
