“Growing up I wanted to be the driver of a steam engine, then a captain of a ship spending endless hours journeying into the unknown. My romance with discovery began quite literally as a fascination for adventure. Finally, having grown up, a realisation that the greatest adventure begins in the depths of our own minds, led me to pursue scholarship in fields disparate – from the early Universe to artificial intelligence.”
