Academic Achievements
- Demonstrated emergence of critical dynamics in mouse cortex during recovery from anesthesia using voltage imaging.
- Showed that critical cortical dynamics correlate with optimized information processing (e.g., capacity and sharing).
- Published data-driven studies on language and documentation issues in clinical medicine.
- Applied ML/NLP to critically examine the expansion of 'organizational values' in healthcare.
- Supervises PhD and Master’s students and welcomes summer student applications.
Research Experience
- Former Wellcome/GlaxoSmithKline Translational Medicine Training Fellow.
- Former National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Clinical Lecturer.
- Applied statistical physics to optogenetic brain imaging data to characterize brain dynamics and conscious states in mice.
- Collaborated with Prof. Robin Carhart-Harris on proposing psychedelics as a treatment for profound disorders of consciousness.
- Designed and conducted a complex experimental medicine study in traumatic brain injury patients, investigating minocycline’s effects on chronic microglial activation.
- Used machine learning and NLP to analyze issues in clinical documentation and critique the proliferation of 'organizational values' in the NHS.
Background
- Post-CCT IPPRF Research Fellow and Neurologist at Imperial College London, Department of Brain Sciences and UK DRI Care Research & Technology Centre.
- Unique as an academic neurologist with a strong computational background in computer science prior to medicine.
- Research interests lie at the intersection of engineering, artificial intelligence, information theory, and clinical neuroscience.
- Aims to be a leading clinician-scientist in abnormal states of consciousness, developing innovative methods to measure and manipulate conscious states.
- Particularly interested in 'transdiagnostic' approaches for general-purpose measurement devices.
