Research Experience
  • Post-doctoral research in computational neuroscience at the cognitive and systems neuroscience group at the University of Amsterdam; Lecturer of Data Analytics in the Intelligent Systems Research Centre at Ulster University in the United Kingdom from October 2019 to September 2021.
Education
  • PhD from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, focusing on developing biologically plausible learning approaches for spiking neural networks.
Background
  • Primary area of research is developing learning algorithms for Spiking Neural Networks (SNN) and applying these networks for AI in energy-constrained scenarios like onboard satellites. Particularly interested in bio-inspired mechanisms for learning which include spiking neural networks and predictive coding.
Miscellany
  • Member of organising committee for Annual Computational Neuroscience Meeting 2020, 2021.
