Scientist, engineer, speaker, and mentor.
I am a biomedical engineer and neuroscientist using AI to explore brain activity. My mission is to apply personalised, precision medicine to improve everyone’s quality of life. Brain health, and injury, can impact our lives in so many ways. From impulsive behaviour to severe seizures, I’m finding out what contributes to these events and how to best treat them.
In my research, I apply computational modelling and AI to clinical and brain data from MRIs and wearables. I’m building personalised models of brain structure and function, which may help understand and treat brain disease and improve brain health. I have ongoing collaborations with the Computational Neuroscience team and School of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Sydney, and the Neurology department at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. I’ve presented my research at leading global conferences (ISMRM, IEC) and organisations (i.e. Cleveland Clinic, Australasian Neuroscience Society, Australian Society for Medical Research, Cognitive Security Institute, Westmead Hospital).
I enjoy inspiring the next generation of scientists and was named one of 60 national Superstars of STEM by Science and Technology Australia. I’ve taught multiple engineering units at USYD and a course I helped design - ENGD3004, where we teach students how to do scientific research within the lens of peace-building. I’ve been a Treasurer for the ISMRM ANZ Chapter and participate in a number of volunteering initiatives.
I believe in making science accessible, so I regularly share science content across my social media accounts and my 8-part series, the Hybrid Human Show. I’ve been fortunate to share my work on radio (i.e. InsideScience BBC, Triple J), podcasts, and in articles for The Guardian and The Conversation. When I’m not working, I exercise (mostly run!), hang with my dog and work on my side hustles.
