Lisa is currently a Senior Researcher within the Psychology and Communication Technology (PaCT) Research Group in the Department of Psychology at Northumbria University. She is working with Professor Pam Briggs on a large collaborative EPSRC project - ‘Identity Management – Public Responses to Identity Technologies and Services’ (IMPRINTS). The project is looking at influences on the public to engage and/or disengage with identity management practices, services and technologies of the future. These involve, among others, new forms of biometric authentication, innovative ‘smart’ tokens like ID or customer cards, jewellery, garment, or further enhanced smart phones.
