Career
Before joining Tilburg University in November 2016, I was a Research Scientist (2005-2016) at the Center for Adaptive Behavior and Cognition, Max Planck Institute for Human Development. Prior to that I was an ESRC Postdoctoral Research Fellow (2004-2005) at the Center for Language Evolution, The University of Edinburgh. I also studied at the University of Edinburgh, where I obtained a BSc. (Hons) in Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science (1996), an MSc. in Cognitive Science (1997), and a Ph.D. (2003) in Cognitive Science. Before starting my Ph.D. in 1999 I held a Research Scientist position at SHARP Laboratories of Europe, Oxford.
