Summary
I am a Clinical Lecturer in Neurology. I am interested in outcomes and treatments for the consequences of traumatic brain injury (TBI). My most recent projects have using novel combined brain stimulation-brain imaging techniques to investigate the potential for brain stimulation as a treatment for cognitive deficits are TBI. I am currently working on characterising aggression and emotional lability after TBI, particularly with regards to its links with post-TBI autonomic dysfunction. I am also interested in using wearable technology and remote monitoring, combined with machine learning techniques, to understand the daily impact of emotional dysfunction after TBI.
I also enjoy my teaching and science outreach activities, and one of my other roles is as a Trustee for Headway West London, a charity for survivors of brain injury.
