Personal profile
Academic Qualifications
I have a PhD in cognitive science, where I studied structure (genre) in texts, in particular looking at how people skim, read, and extract relevant information from emails and web pages. I have experience in both software development for information retrieval and seeking, and in experimental research on human information use using eyetracking technology.
I am currently PI of six exciting research projects funded by the SFC Innovate Vouchers and also the Covid '19 uplift fund. I am also a Research Initiator to expand the current research projects with likeminded researchers across the UHI and other academic institutes.
I also have research outputs and interests in Artificial Intelligence, in particular, Machine Learning, and also domain knowledge modelling/data analytics.
Outside interests include research into helping people communicate more effectively by using psychometrics to measure empathy in their emails with Turalt (Toronto: Canada)which the la
