Foundation doctor

BSc, BMedSc(Hons), MBChB

I am working with Dr. Emma Robinson within the Department of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences at King’s College London. My current research is funded by the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission and focuses on understanding the genetic influences on cortical organisation across the lifespan using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and genomics. This work utilises data from large-scale studies including Human Connectome Project, Developing Human Connectome Project and UK Biobank.

I am interested in using multimodal MRI to define biologically meaningful neuroanatomical regions. This involves MR image registration and processing, particularly surface representations of the cerebral cortex. I am also interested in how surface deep learning methods can be used to capture subject variability in cortical organisation. Motivating these approaches is a desire to more accurately understand neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. I plan to resume clinical training, with the hope of working as a clinician-scientist in neuroradiology.
