Evolution of Josh

About Me:

I am currently finishing my Master’s in Systems Science with Professor Hiroki Sayama of the Bioengineering Department. I’m interested in developing innovations that can adapt, learn and self-improve like living organisms and enhance the human experience in ways that are only now becoming possible. My thesis project focuses on using real-time artificial genetic transmission to develop robust, decentralized control algorithms for a swarm of robots. In other words, imagine a swarm of Roombas with their own personalities…
