Overview

Penelope A. Lewis is affiliated with Cardiff University in the United Kingdom and conducts research at the intersection of neuroscience, medicine, and psychology. Their work primarily focuses on cognitive neuroscience, with additional contributions to geriatrics and gerontology, experimental and cognitive psychology, as well as economics and econometrics.

The scientist's research addresses various domains related to sleep and wakefulness, pharmaceutical practices, and patient outcomes. They have explored sleep-related disorders, health systems, economic evaluations, quality of life, EEG and brain-computer interfaces, memory and neural mechanisms, and patient safety, including medication errors.

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Penelope A. Lewis include Richard N. Keers, Fatima Q. Alshaikhmubarak, Mahmoud E. A. Abdellahi, Martyna Rakowska, and Andrei Foldes.
