About

I’m a final-year medical student at the University of Edinburgh with a strong passion for neurosurgery and neuroscience research, particularly in functional neurosurgery. I have a keen interest in understanding how precise interventions can restore and enhance neural function, bridging science and surgery to improve patient outcomes. Driven by curiosity and initiative, I’ve undertaken a wide range of research projects across multiple neurosurgical subspecialties, exploring both clinical and translational aspects of the field. My goal is to contribute meaningfully to advancing neurosurgical knowledge through innovation, collaboration, and evidence-based practice.
