Aamir Sohail 🇬🇧 🇵🇰

🏛️ I am an MRC Advanced Interdisciplinary Methods (AIM) DTP PhD student based at the Centre for Human Brain Health (CHBH), University of Birmingham.

🧠 My research interests involve using experimental tasks and computational modeling to understand social decision-making in humans and AI. I am also more broadly interested in the impact of AI on society, and towards how science is conducted.

I am supervised by Lei Zhang and Patricia Lockwood.

🌍 🏳️‍🌈 🌐 I am also passionate about facilitating inclusivity and diversity in academia, as well as promoting open and reproducible science.

📕 Quick Bio

I completed a BSc in Biomedical Science at Imperial College London, with my final-year project supervised by Anne Lingford-Hughes and Sam Turton, followed by an MSc in Brain Imaging at the University of Nottingham under the supervision of Jan Derrfuss and Claudia Danielmeier. I then worked as research and administrative support at the Centre for Integrative Neuroscience and Neurodynamics (CINN) at the University of Reading under Anastasia Christakou.

Outside of work I enjoy playing snooker 🎱 (high break of 63), going on meandering walks 🚶, watching cricket 🏏 and listening to music 🎶
