Academic Clinical Fellow in Clinical Neurophysiology

  • ACF in the Vision Group
  • Internal Medicine Trainee
  • Clinical Teaching Associate at Exeter College

My research interests lie in the field of visual neuroscience, with a particular interest in abnormalities in visual perception arising from acquired and congenital damage to the brain. I have considerable expertise in applying multi-modal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patient groups including post-stroke and congenital hemianopia, posterior cortical atrophy, and coeliac disease. I am currently developing a novel research program combining EEG and MRI to guide rehabilitation following occipital stroke. This complements my clinical training, where I will shortly commence my post as an SpR in Clinical Neurophysiology. I look forward to gaining a range of skills and understanding in visual neurophysiology in particular. I particularly aim to apply my academic skillset to optimise the use of these techniques for patient benefit.

In addition to my research and clinical work, I am passionate about education, and am currently a Clinical Teaching Associate at Exeter College, where I provide bedside teaching for clinical medicine students. I also supervise FHS and Masters research projects in my role in the Vision group. I am always happy to be contacted by students and trainees wanting advice on clinical academic career pathways.
