Andressa Almeida

I'm a PhD candidate at the University of Sydney, where I research sexual, family, and domestic violence, specifically how cultural factors might influence how people respond to and intervene in these situations. Before moving to Sydney, I completed a Master's of research in clinical psychology at Sapienza University in Rome. My research centres on bringing cognitive and social psychology into the legal contexts, and I am particularly fascinated by the ways culture and memory shape how we understand and respond to violence.
