I study information processing in mammalian and machine systems, using a combination of signal processing, physiology, and behavior. My approach to data modelling draws upon a combination of theory/hypothesis driven questions, and machine learning to mine features from high dimensional data sets. As a computational scientist, I unmix complex signals, optimize signal integration models, and study network connectivity dynamics. As a neuroscientist, I'm interested in sensory-motor networks, auditory processing, motor learning, and attention/distribution of cognitive resources. Music and capoeira keep me sane, and I've performed and taught both. You might catch me out bicycling or hiking on a trail.
