- Profile
-
Stuart studied Psychology & Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of 91Ö±²¥ (2006) and Bioinformatics & Neuroinformatics at the University of Edinburgh (2007) before completing a PhD in Theoretical Neuroscience at the University of 91Ö±²¥ (2011). He was appointed as a Lecturer in the Department of Psychology at the University of 91Ö±²¥ in 2012, and as a Senior Lecturer in 2020. Stuart joined the Department of Computer Science in 2023.
- Research interests
-
Stuart is interested in how self-organisation and natural selection interact to shape complex systems, including brains. He explores this interaction through computational neuroscience modelling, and by connecting artificial neural networks to the physical world through robotics.
