Research

My research interests sit around robot learning and control, particularly for systems that need to make and break contact with the world: manipulating objects, reasoning through uncertainty, and turning models into useful physical behaviour.

I am really interested in optimisation-based approaches to control and perception, and how these can be combined with learning to make robots more capable in messy, real environments.

My research home is at the Edinburgh Centre for Robotics, where I am a member of the Mistry Robotics Lab and the Ocean Systems Lab.

My work is funded by the UKRI AI Centre for Doctoral Training in Dependable and Deployable AI for Robotics
