Introduction
I trained in computer science and software engineering before doing a masters degree in computational molecular biology in Manchester. I completed my PhD in 2013, studying dynamical systems theory and computational modelling in epilepsy. I have since undertaken postdoctoral work at NTU Singapore, MGH Boston, and in Newcastle before starting a faculty fellowship in Newcastle in 2015. I began an open-ended lectureship in in 2018 and secured a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship in 2020. I have also held an honorary position at University College London since 2016. I am Associate Editor at PLoS Computational Biology.

Research
My research is focused on using computational methods to understand brain function and in the case of disease, brain dysfunction. I use methods from mathematical modelling, dynamical systems and graph theory to investigate complex brain network dynamics. I use functional data such as EEG, MEG and fMRI in addition to structural data derived from MRI and diffusion MRI. Primarily I work on epilepsy.
