Our Team: Jade Davies

PHD STUDENT AND RESEARCH ASSOCIATE

PhD Candidate, University of Manchester

I am a PhD student and researcher on the #So.Me project. My PhD is looking at the ways in which young people use social media, and whether different social media activities have different effects on young people's mental health. Before joining the team, I completed a Masters in the Psychology of Education at the University of Manchester. I also worked as a Research Assistant at UCL's Centre for Research in Autism and Education (CRAE), where I collaborated with autistic young people and adults on projects that were important to them. I am passionate about participatory research and including people in the research that seeks to benefit them.
