Myra Wilson

Myra S. Wilson is a British computer scientist. She is a senior lecturer in computer science at Aberystwyth University, Wales.^[1] Her research interests are in the broad area of robotics, and she also teaches in the field.

Education and research[edit]

Myra S. Wilson received the B.Sc. degree from Aberdeen University, Aberdeen, U.K., and the Ph.D. degree in computer science from the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, UK.^[2]

She heads the Intelligent Robotics Group, as well as the Biologically Inspired Robotics Network (biro-net). Her interests include adaptive robotics and biologically inspired systems.^[2]

Media work[edit]

She was a judge on the BBC television robot combat programme Robot Wars for the fourth and fifth series in 2000–2001.^[3]
