Professor of Mathematical Logic in the School of Mathematics at the University of Leeds. A graduate of the University of Oxford, he obtained his doctorate on "Degrees of Unsolvability" from the University of Leicester, working with Reuben Louis Goodstein, and C. E. M. Yates at the University of Manchester. His research follows that of Alan Turing in its focus on the nature of mental and physical computation. It seeks to characterise the computational framework underlying emergence in nature and the causal structure of the real universe.
