I help organisations interpret neural data, design neuro-inspired intelligent systems, and translate complex science into actionable decisions.
Alex is a neuroscientist & AGI researcher at the University of Exeter, where he leads the Computational Psychiatry & Neuropharmacological Systems (CPNS) Lab and serves as Director of Business Engagement & Innovation for Psychology.
His work combines dynamical systems modelling with Variational Bayes/Laplace inference to explain brain function, neuropharmacology, cognition and disease. He develops open-source tools used internationally for Dynamic Causal Modelling, active inference, predictive coding, and optimisation-driven modelling.
Four service lines that convert complex neuroscience into value: from rigorous model fitting and biomarkers to neuro-inspired AI and strategy.
Scientific rigour for investment, research translation, and product strategy.
Biologically-plausible algorithms and architectures for adaptive, data-efficient intelligence.
Translating EEG/MEG/fMRI into mechanistic understanding and computational endpoints.
Turning neuroscience into measurable outcomes across R&D and product teams.
Representative projects that illustrate how mechanistic modelling and neuro-AI unlock value in R&D and product development.
Predictive coding architectures and free-energy-based control for intelligent agents operating under uncertainty.
Mechanistic modelling of sleep and task EEG to identify computational biomarkers for diagnosis, stratification, and treatment response.
Inferring receptor-level dynamics and oscillatory changes from pharmacological manipulation to guide development and safety.
Lightweight EEG/behaviour protocols and model-based metrics for attention, engagement, and decision-making.
Clear tiers for rapid advisory, scoped projects, or ongoing partnership. University-routed contracts available at 130% FEC.
High-leverage strategy or technical consults.
£250–£600 per session
Bespoke analysis or modelling with deliverables.
£2,000–£10,000 per project
Ongoing collaboration and technical advisory.
