Marvin Schiller works for the Institute for Artificial Intelligence at the University of Ulm. His research interests are knowledge representation, cognitive modelling, automated and human reasoning, and intelligent tutoring systems. Previously, Marvin worked for the Centre for the Study of Expertise at Brunel University , where he investigated cognitive models for problem gambling under the direction of Prof. Gobet . Marvin obtained his PhD in 2010 for his thesis "Granularity Analysis for Tutoring Mathematical Proofs" at Saarland University, Saarbrücken, Germany, where he has been a member of the Centre for E-Learning CeLTech .

Together with Prof. Gobet, Marvin was an organiser for the recent 2011 London Workshop on Problem Gambling and the CHREST Tutorial.
