About
Dr. Susie Murphy is a leading researcher at the intersection of computational neuroscience and robotics, with a primary focus on neurorobotics and embodied cognition. Her most significant contribution is her central role in developing the Human Brain Project’s Neurorobotics Platform (NRP), a groundbreaking tool that allows scientists to connect spiking neural networks to virtual and real robots. This platform, detailed in her highly cited 2017 paper (5 citations), enables embodiment experiments on high-performance computing clusters through an intuitive web interface, democratizing access to complex neuro-robotic simulations. By providing this infrastructure, Murphy has fundamentally advanced the study of how neural circuits generate behavior in real-time, bridging the gap between theoretical models and physical agents. Her work is pivotal for researchers exploring sensorimotor loops, closed-loop control, and the neural basis of action, making her a key architect of the tools that drive modern neurorobotics research.
