      Yes, I love biology, but I wish I knew a lot more about it. The part of biology that comes up most often in my work is to do with the electrical activity in cells like neurons and muscle cells. There’s a load of stuff in biology that I have no idea about though. Hopefully, I’ll get to learn more about it in the years to come. Biology provides a lot of inspiration for robotics, because evolution has come up with so many brilliant solutions that we can learn from – everything from neurons to the human eye to the gecko’s foot. Nature is full of incredible things we can learn from!
