Dr. Eric Lawrey
Following completion of a PhD on modelling improved techniques for wireless communication, Dr. Lawrey took up the position of Chief Technical Officer at Code Valley; a software engineering company researching a new way of developing software using distributed computing. In 2008 Dr. Lawrey joined AIMS as the e-Atlas developer and in 2011 took over as project leader for the e-Atlas, where he now focuses on data processing and stakeholder engagement.
