Background
Postdoctoral Experience
Postdoctoral Research Associate (2008-2011)
Institute for Perception, Action & Behaviour, University of Edinburgh.
A joint project developing insect inspired robotic models funded by the EPSRC. We are
using the model organism Drosophila to investigate non-elemental learning.
