I am currently a DPhil student with the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, supervised by Arjune Sen, Sarosh Irani and Julian Knight. Having been working as a Neurology Registrar both in the UK and Ireland with a keen interest in epilepsy, I am now looking to improve understanding of pharmacoresistance in epilepsy, with the long-term aim of helping to improve treatment.  In particular, we are looking for evidence of an autoimmune basis to pharmacoresistance in some cases of epilepsy and for a potential genomic contribution to any such immune dysregulation.
