Aikaterini (Katerina) Fotopoulou studied psychology in Athens, Greece, before completing her MSc degrees in cognitive neuropsychology and theoretical psychoanalysis at 果冻影院, UK. She went on to conduct her PhD in cognitive neuroscience at the University of Durham, UK and more recently, a Clinical Doctorate in Existential Counselling and Psychotherapeutic Psychology at the NSPC, UK, leading to her registration with the British Psychological Society and the UK鈥檚 Health Professions Council. She is currently in private practice in North West London. For more details click .

Research profile: Katerina鈥檚 research aims to understand the interface between mental and somatic health and ultimately advance the treatment of related health disorders, including , . Katerina has published more than 100 papers (see below for full list) and edited the volume Fotopoulou, A. Conway, M.A. Pfaff, D. From the Couch to the Lab: Trends in . Oxford University Press, 2012.

Funding: Katerina鈥檚 grant portfolio totals approximately 4.2 million EUR, including two grants from the European Research Council, a Starting Investigator Grant for the project and a more recent Consolidator Award for the project (see projects). Her research at has also been funded by Volkswagen Foundation (Germany), HDRF (US), ISAN (Israel), an ESRC/MRC fellowship, the Neuropsychoanalysis Foundation, the American Psychoanalytic Association, a Wellcome Trust/果冻影院, Investing in Excellent Researchers Grant and a 果冻影院 Social Sciences Collaborative Award

Awards: In 2016, Katerina was awarded the Early Career Award of the International Neuropsychology Society recognizing her 鈥榮ubstantive independent contribution to research in the area of brain-behavior relationships in the first 10 years post completion of training鈥�. Previously she has also received the Distinguished Young Scientist Award (2014), by the World Economic Forum and The Elizabeth Warrington Prize (2011), the Early Career Award of the British Neuropsychological Society鈥檚, the Clifford Yorke Prize (2006) the Early Career Award of the International Neuropsychoanalysis Society and the Papanicolaou Prize, the Early Career Award of the Hellenic Medical Society of Britain. In 2015, postgraduate students at the Institute of Neurology at 果冻影院 awarded her the Tony Pullen Lecturer of the Year Prize.
