Lucy studied Linguistics at Sussex University and then undertook both her Masters and PhD at University College London. Her Masters project investigated pragmatic skills in right hemisphere communication disorder and her PhD thesis explored links between thought and language, by examining verb problems in aphasia. Since then Lucy's research has continued to focus on thought and language in a range of communication problems, especially aphasia.
