Surprisingly, pilot training, especially in the air combat domain, is a natural progression in my academic career. My neurophys stuff was on spatial coding and orienting behaviour, then I went into online learning and ed tech, which led to simulations in training. But the most interesting stuff in pilot training is the 4D space stuff, which is also ties in beautifully with martial arts. The interconnectedness of the universe continues to amaze me :-) I’m back being a cognitive scientist rather than a web-developer / online learning person.
