I am a PhD researcher at the University of Cambridge, work on autonomous vehicles at Minimal, writer read by 58,000+ people, and occasional ultramarathon runner.

PhD research

I am a PhD at the University of Cambridge, funded by a Medical Research Council industrial Collaborative Award in Science and Engineering studentship.

Medical Research Council UK Research and Innovation

I work on vision-language models. I am building end-to-end world models that interpret social interaction, and deploying them on wearable glasses at under 100 milliseconds. I also do mechanistic interpretability on how these models represent a social scene. We collaborate closely with AI researchers at Stanford and Harvard.

Publications are available on Google Scholar.

I work closely with Emteq Labs on this project. They make non-invasive human-computer interfaces.

AI engineering internship at Minimal

Minimal

I worked on a vision-language-action model for an autonomous delivery robot. I built the pipelines for data collection and training, fine-tuned the model for deployment, collected synthetic data, and developed the simulation environment.

Writing and science communication

I write about AI and neuroscience for 58,000+ people on Bluesky and Substack. I run workshops for teachers on AI and neuroscience in schools across the UK, and I recently delivered them to charities in Kolkata.

I host Bridging the Gap, a podcast of interviews with scientists.

Fun

I am currently raising money for sarcoma.

101km, with 3,000m of elevation, Peak District ultramarathon with Sacha.

800km in 8 days for Alzheimer's. We raised £7,000. Follow the journey here.

I will be running the London Marathon and the Cotswold ultramarathon in 2027.

Oh, and I'm also converting a classic VW T3.
