My academic interests are set in the intersection of neuroscience (spiking neuron models, neural dynamics, synaptic mechanisms), machine learning (generic learning algorithms, signal processing) and mathematical modelling.

I started my PhD in December 2005 and my topic targets the study of the dynamics of neural networks where synaptic plasticity takes place, especially Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity (STDP) in recurrently connected networks of Poisson neurons.

My supervisors are Anthony N Burkitt, David B Grayden and Doreen A Thomas. I also belong to NICTA.

My other interests include sports (all kinds of), cooking, and actually vary with the seasons.
