Dr. Artur Luczak received a M.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering, and in 2002 he obtained a Ph.D. from Jagiellonian University, Poland. During that time he was also awarded fellowships in the Netherlands, France, and Italy. During his postdoctoral training at Yale University and at Rutgers University, he studied information processing in neuronal populations using experimental and theoretical methods. In 2009, Dr. Luczak joined the University of Lethbridge as an assistant professor.
