I am a Senior Research Fellow at the
Sainsbury Wellcome Centre
& Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit
at University College London (UCL).
Research summary: I study prior knowledge and learning mechanisms in minds, brains, and machine using a combination of behavioral experiments, computational simulations, and analytical techniques. See my research page for more.
