- Data science and biomarkers
I am an early-career multidisciplinary researcher, presently employed as a clinical machine learning researcher at the University of Oxford. My research primarily centres around electronic healthcare records and secondary care data. During my doctoral studies, I concentrated on visual knowledge transformation, while my current postdoctoral work is centred on developing survival-aware machine learning techniques for healthcare applications

My work focusses on the development and use of virtual reality interventions for the management of chronic pain. This includes research into brain-computer interfaces, personalised approaches using sensor-based technologies (eye tracking, EEG, ECG etc), and machine learning.

I have conducted research on pain and its management for over 30 years. Areas of interest include response to electrophysical agents, individuality and pain, perceptual embodiment, epidemiology, pain education, pain and art, community-support-programmes for pain, and painogencity (health promotion). Methodologies include evidence syntheses (e.g., Cochrane reviews, meta-ethnography), human response to stimuli (quantitative sensory testing) and clinical trials. I have a long-standing interest in transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and deliver a distance learning MSc module on Foundation Neuromodulation (implantable devices).
