Andy Bremner took his BA in Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford where he then went on to research for a DPhil with Prof. Peter Bryant, FRS. Andy worked on two postdoctoral appointments, firstly with Prof. Denis Mareschal at the Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, Birkbeck, University of London, and later with Prof. Axel Cleeremans at the Universite Libre de Bruxelles. In 2005 Andy took up an academic post at Goldsmiths, University of London where he was latterly Professor and Head of Psychology. In 2018, Andy moved to the School of Psychology, University 麻豆精选 where he is using a range of behavioural and physiological methods to investigate the developmental origins of perceptual, sensorimotor and cognitive abilities in infants and children. A particular focus of Andy’s research is the development of multisensory processes, particularly those underlying body representations. From 2009-2015, Andy’s research was funded by the European Research Council grant, “Human Embodied Multisensory Development”. In 2012 Andy co-edited the book Multisensory Development (Oxford University Press) with Profs. David Lewkowicz and Charles Spence.

Professor Bremner teaches on undergraduate modules on developmental psychology, and also the first year undergraduate module: Skills in Psychology and Neuroscience.

Professor Bremner supervises PhD students interested in perceptual, sensorimotor and cognitive development, with particular emphasis on the following areas:

• The development of body perception in infancy and childhood
• Sensory processing and sensory processing differences in early life
• Sensorimotor development in infancy
• Multisensory development in infancy and childhood
• The development of touch perception in infancy and childhood
• The development of object perception and spatial representation in infancy
• Crosscultural differences in perception
• The development of visual and multisensory illusions

Research Interests: 

The development of multisensory perception, object knowledge, spatial representation, body representation, in infancy and early childhood.
