Overview

I am a PhD student working on the Wellcome Trust Discovery Award titled "Deep Microstructural Phenotyping of the Developing Brain". My research focuses on how brain microstructure may be able to explain individual differences in adolescent development outcomes. Methods include biophysical modelling and predictive modelling.

Prior to my PhD, I completed a BSc in Psychology with Professional Placement at Cardiff University. During my placement year, I worked at Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Centre (CUBRIC), contributing to research on cognitive and cortical connectivity differences in young people with high-risk copy number variants associated with schizophrenia.
