Summary
I graduated from the University of Nottingham with a Vice Chancellor Research Excellence funded PhD in 2021, where I investigated the modulation of oxytocin brain penetration via intranasal delivery and a novel conjugate peptide.
Maintaining an interest in behavioural neuroscience and neuronal circuitry, I subsequently joined the Franks-Wisden laboratory as Research Associate and am also Visiting Researcher at the University of Surrey, Surrey Sleep Research Centre. My current project, funded by the U.K. Dementia Research Institute investigates the impact of REM sleep on emotional and cognitive symptoms of dementia.
