Qualifications

Bsc (hons) Computer Science, PhD

Research Interests

My primary interests are in information visualisation / analytics and computer science education, however, I am also interested in high performance computing, programming languages, and artificial intelligence. I am a member of the programming languages and human computer interaction research groups.

My main projects (in collaboration with numerous others) are:
  • Visualisation and analysis of educational data
  • Visualisation and manipulation of radio astronomy images
  • Visualisation of historical data
  • 3D morphometrics of fossils without the use of landmarks

I am very interested in scientific applications of visualisation and computer science and creating practical solutions to research problems.
