Overview
I am a postgraduate research student based in CUBRIC. The main aim of my research is to provide a comprehensive microstructure-characterisation of prostate using efficient diffusion-relaxometry MRI framework with ultra-strong gradients. My research combines computational modelling, physics and mathematics to better understand the structural changes in biological tissue in health and disease. The project is a collaboration of Cardiff University with Siemens Healthineers.
