My research interests are focused on quantitative MRI, investigating how we can utilise modified imaging acquisitions and novel post-processing algorithms to derive quantitative biomarkers of tissue and obtain information about its microstructural (sub-resolution) properties. In Oxford I am continuing work on an ongoing project investigating the impact of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in the human brain, where we are mapping relationships between multi-modal MR image contrast and histology-derived properties within the same tissue. Prior to Oxford, my my PhD focused on MRI phase as a means to investigate the quantitative and microstructural properties of tissue, including quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), susceptibility tensor imaging (STI) and frequency difference mapping (FDM).
