We're delighted to be welcoming Jason at Southampton, joining a large and growing group in political psychology, public opinion and behaviour.
After 11 great years at the University of Exeter, this August I’ll be moving to the University of Southampton. I have great things to say about Exeter, and always will. I have lots of friends and colleagues, and I’ll miss them all greatly.
