Assistant Professor of Neurodevelopmental Research
Personal Statement
My team works on social and genetic factors that influence mental health conditions. We have a particular interest in investigating heterogeneity in outcomes to develop targeted support for those who need it.
In parallel, we also investigate how genes shape how the brain develops and have an interest in linking neuroimaging data with genetics. Further information on our work can be found here: Neurodevelopmental Research Group.
