Poppy Brown

BA(Hons)

DPhil student

I am currently a DPhil student supervised by Professor Daniel Freeman and Dr Felicity Waite.

My research focusses on identifying the best psychological techniques to help patients with persecutory delusions successfully re-engage with social situations through the use of immersive virtual reality. 

I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Philosophy at Oxford.


We investigate why people experience hallucinations and delusions, and use that knowledge to develop truly effective treatments for these problems. Our targeted interventions for paranoia are now being tested in randomized controlled clinical trials.
