I’m MR physicist working on developing and optimising MRI techniques on human and animal systems. The aim of one of the projects I’m involved in is the scanning of patients with sciatica to define factors that predict the transition from acute to persistent pain

We are interested in the innovation of electrical stimulation therapies for neurological disorders (a.k.a. neuromodulation), specifically for chronic pain management. The overall goal of our group is to develop a patient-specific approach using computer models and clinical measurements. We believe this research will help optimize current technologies and innovate new therapies to improve patient outcomes.

I work with prof. Amanda Williams (UCL Health Psychology) and prof. Nadia Berthouze at (UCL engineering) to design experiments using Sensors in Ecological settings. With a focus on chronic pain our general aim is to use technology to support the study of pain in “the wild” by looking at behavioural patterns, psychological and emotional states, social participation, activity and movement.
