Education

As a trained and highly cited computer scientist my interest is in science with practical impact. As a director of a research institute I aim at hiring people smarter than me and helping them to achieve their aspirations. Although my educational background is formal logic and AI, I believe in putting people first - as users of technology as well as colleagues. I aim at inspiring people by developing visions which allows a group to collaborate and to achieve more than any individual could. I have a talent to recognise and initiate technology directions early and to ask the scientific questions necessary to advance a field.
