Professor Leslie S. Smith: Home Page
I was head of the Computational Intelligence (was Natural/Neural Computing) Research Group in this Department until I took over as Head of Department in August 2008. My own primary interests are in early auditory processing, spike-based computing and the interconnection of real (cultured) neurons and electronics. I am chair of the UKCRC Grand Challenge GC-5 Architecture of the Brain and Mind.
