Hi all,

I think this list is a great idea; thanks for letting me join it!

Just a quick introduction...I worked with Debbie Riby as a research assistant 2 years ago looking at attention to faces in Williams Syndrome. I recently completed my MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of York where for my dissertation I looked at the representation of shape and texture of faces in the brain, supervised by Tim Andrews. I am just starting a PhD at Northumbria University looking at neurocognitive performance in Type 2 diabetes, looking particularly at the role of glycaemic control and task difficulty on recognition memory.

I am in the initial stages of planning for my very first experiment and am looking for a face image database of at least 100 different faces (male and female, neutral expressions) which are high resolution, frontal view colour photographs. I have looked through several databases but they either do not have enough photos or the quality is not great. If anyone has access to a set or could point me in the right direction, I would be most grateful.

Thanks and best wishes to all,

Nicola
