He initially studied philosophy of science at the London School of Economics and then did MRC funded research upon neuroscience and dyslexia at University College London.
He published a letter while a first year undergraduate in the science journal Nature on the left lateralizing role of the Greek alphabet and the origins of Greek and Western civilization. He is the coauthor of a book, Up from Dragons: The evolution of intelligence with Dorion Sagan upon the role of neural plasticity, the prefrontal cortex, symbols upon human evolution and the rise of modern human cognition. Being himself a dyslexic, he has written about the development of dyslexia and neural networks, and the role of the brain in dyslexia.
