Biography

Dr David Keeble originally studied Physics at the University of Sussex (BSc) and the University of Leicester (PhD). He subsequently studied for a BSc Psychology Degree with the Open University.

He then took a lectureship at the University of Bradford, Department of Optometry, being promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2004.
