Anna Dyson

I am an ESRC funded PhD candidate supervised by Dr Daniel Prince and Dr Mark Lacy. My research is focused on unmanned and robotic systems in contemporary conflict and seeks to understand how these rapidly shifting domains can create novel vulnerabilities in the context of defence and security.
