Biography

I'm a research associate in the Inference, Dynamics and Interaction group led by Professor Rod Murray-Smith, part of the wider Information, Data & Analysis section. 

I've been part of the group for several years and my work typically fits the role of a "research software engineer", assisting other researchers with a wide range of software development tasks in a variety of previous and current research projects.

I help to administer the IDA GPU cluster hosted within the School, and I am also responsible for updating and maintaining an events system which is now used by multiple schools and colleges across the university.

I obtained a M.Sci in Computing Science from the University of Glasgow in 2005.

Research interests

The projects I've been part of touch on many different research areas, including:

I've also developed or help to develop drivers for several pieces of research hardware, including:
