I am a Lecturer in Psychology at Newcastle University. Prior to that I was Senior Research Fellow at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience (ICN, University College London). I obtained my PhD from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL).
Currently my main research focus is on the neural basis of episodic memory, and spatial navigation, but I am also interested in visual cognition, large scale brain modeling, AI, central pattern generators and biologically inspired robotics. I am a physicist by training, and time permitting I moonlight as a writer. My first novel (a satire) is available on Amazon. |
