His PhD at Queen Mary University of London focused on visual-to-auditory sensory substitution assessing devices which convert visual information to auditory soundscapes utilised to provide visual percepts to users with sensory impairments. He has published in numerous scientific journals, given talks at national and international conferences, and interviews for a variety of media outlets. Examples of recent research in multisensory perception have included topics such as information capacity limits in sonified object recognition, perception of affect in haptic and sonified signals, and perceptual learning. He also has an interest in whisky – from a scientific perspective naturally.
