Bio:

I am a Lecturer at the School of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Edinburgh (UK). My research interests revolve around using computers to understand learning and memory, from simulating how proteins in the brain work together to strengthen the connection between neurons to using educational data to understand how students learn. My teaching appointment is within the Dual Award Honours degree program at the University of Edinburgh (UK) and Zhejiang University (China).
