СʪÃÃÊÓƵ

Summary

I have over 20 years of experience in research and development across academia and the private sector, specialising in emerging technologies. I have worked on multidiscplinary research projects in close collaboration with clinical organisations such as the UCL Hospitals NHS Trust, large industry partners such as QinetiQ, and international research organisations such as the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center.

Formerly project leader in the private sector (pharmaceutical consulting), I have collaborated closely with clinicians, biologists, statisticians, mathematicians, sociologists, psychologists, educationalists, and engineering designers, thereby developing a robust understanding of interdisciplinary collaboration dynamics and a deep appreciation of knowledge exchange and research exploitation pathways.

I am a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Co-Head of External Engagement and Partnership with the Brunel Centre for AI, and a Member of the Peer Review College of the Engineering & Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).

I have considerable experience working with businesses and am available to explore opportunities for joint R&D bids, consultancy, and student projects.
