Biography

Dr Matthew Ellis is a Lecturer in Machine Learning and member of the Machine Learning Group at the Department of Computer Science. He graduated with a MPhys in Theoretical Physics from the University of York in 2011, before staying at York to undertake a PhD in Physics under Prof. Roy Chantrell. After completing his PhD in 2015 he joined the group of Prof. Stefano Sanvito at Trinity College Dublin as a post-doctoral research fellow. In 2019, he joined the University of Sheffield as a post-doctoral research associate in the Bio-Inpsired Machine Learning group under Prof. Eleni Vasilaki developing machine learning models for neuromorphic computing in collaboration with the Department of Materials Science.
