Thrishantha joined the lab in 2001 as a postdoc after completing a PhD in Control and Robotics from Saga University, Sri Lanka. In our lab he worked on the ability of the brain to predict consequences of motor commands and used saccades as a measure of that prediction. He subsequently became a Radcliff Fellow at Harvard University. He was appointed Associate Professor of Engineering, Imperial College.
