      My favourite scientist is my old lecturer and supervisor Prof Bob Elwood because he designs amazing experiments that answer really important questions but, more importantly, he has taught so many other people about science and experiments.

      Sir David Attenborough is one amazing person – he studied as a scientist and now tells everyone about it, inspiring us all with the wonders of nature.
      Outside the world of animal behaviour I would say Sir Paul Nurse, a British scientist who has won a Nobel Prize and brings lots of people together to help find cures for diseases.

      Gerald Durrell – he has done so much incredible work to help save animals from the threat of extinction and his legacy lives on to this day

      David Attenborough, is a tv presenter, a scientist, a naturalist, and my personal hero. My phd advisor, Prof. Lotta Kvarnemo is also a great inspiration to me, for her creativity, her sharp mind, her enthusiasm for research. She’s also a wonderfully kind persona and a dear friend.

      Oooo I haven’t found anyone who does my kind of research on games at the moment or communicate the research in innovative manners. So maybe I don’t have a favourite at the moment.
