From my pre-ARIA work, paper with the awesome Maydel Fernandez-Alonso , Gordon Love and Abi Finch on how the visual system copes with the fact that different wavelengths of light require different optical focus, just out in Journal of Vision
Chuffed to see Vivek Nityananda and my (pre-ARIA) research on praying mantis stereopsis used as a case study in philosophy of science by University of Iowa's Carrie Figdor: cambridge.org/core/journals/…
With ARIA colleagues, I'll be at Robotics Summit & Expo in Boston next week and then Automate Show in Chicago. Like to meet? DM me! Major funding call for robot dexterity research coming in June; later, seed funding on robotic hardware more generally aria.org.uk/what-were-work…
Lacking data about what is happening to our climate, we risk stumbling into devastating feedback loops. So it's incredibly important that Sarah Bohndiek and Gemma Bale at ARIA are developing an early warning system for the planet.
I will be forever grateful for my The Royal Society University Research Fellowship. Good luck to everyone applying in this year’s round.
