Summary

I am an NIHR Clinical Lecturer in Neurology. My subspecialty interest is Traumatic Brain Injury, and my academic work is strongly influenced by my clinical practice in this area. My research uses multimodal methods to assess outcomes and treatments for the consequences of traumatic brain injury (TBI). My most recent projects have used novel combined brain stimulation-brain imaging techniques to investigate the potential for brain stimulation as a treatment for cognitive deficits after TBI.

My current work is in 3 strands:

(1) Investigating and treating autonomic & emotional function after TBI, using multimodal techniques (advanced MRI, pupillometry, non-invasive stimulation),

(2) Characterising post-TBI inflammation and its consequences, and

(3) Using wearable technology and remote monitoring, combined with machine learning techniques, to understand 'real world' recovery after TBI.

I am also working to highlight the inadequacy of current clinical care pathways for TBI patients, and to try to improve that. I enjoy teaching and outreach activities, and currently act as a Trustee for Headway West London, a charity supporting survivors of brain injury.
