Cognitive Science group PhD student Daniel Gill gave a CS in Academia Industry Talk to the Computer Science Society at the University of Lincoln.

Dan's PhD concerns the Identification of Interactive Motion Patterns in Neurodivergent Children and Adults. He is using a robotic system to experimentally investigate how neurodivergent people interact with technology and other humans in order to create systems with neurodivergent interactions in mind.

In this talk he discussed his route into research, through his BSc FYP, MSc project, and now his PhD, demonstrating that academia can be an avenue for solving real-world problems within a user-centred framework. He provided tips for the audience on careers in academia.
