Colleagues and Friends
Patrik O'Brian Holt
is now Research Professor in the School of Computing at Robert Gordon University, and Director of the Computational Systems Joint Research Institute, which is part of the Northern Research Partnership (NRP) and he leads the Cognitive Engineering Research Group.
Patrik was head of ISEL (Image Systems Engineering Laboratory) at Heriot-Watt University, taught me for my MSc and supervised both my MSc and PhD dissertations. I continue to actively collaborate with, and receive support from Patrik. His website is here.
Albert Burger
took over leadership of ISEL and the poisoned chalice of being my PhD supervisor from Patrik. As the work of the lab orientated more towards biological systems, it evolved into BISEL - Biomedical Informatics Systems Engineering Laboratory.
We have just completed the Argudas project on which I was working part-time lead by Albert. His website is here.
Kenneth McLeod
is a fellow Researcher in BISEL who was co-investigator on the Argudas Project. As well as working with him on Argudas, I have had the pleasure of working with him on the Sealife and XSPAN projects as well. He has successfully taken over my mantle of being the one in the lab who always gets a dud Mac. Kenneth's website is here.
Phil Day
is Senior Usability Specialist at NCR Corporation in Dundee. He did his MSc in HCI at the same time as me and then his PhD in ISEL and was a Researcher on the CoSTAR project. His research was into the use of Virtual Reality in industrial processes and he is now a hot-shot usability and ergonomics guru. Phil's LinkedIN site is here.

Patrick Bowden-Smith and Ted Carr
are friends who I work on Land Management and Conservation projects with. More details are on my Conservation page.
Kevan Gordon of Fix My Mac
Is a genius and a gentleman! I have been a Mac user for more years than most and now use a 17" MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4. I have had occasion to make use of the excellent services of this brilliant certified Apple Engineer who provides an unbeatable, personal repair and support service, at a fraction of the rates charged by Apple.
