Leicester, England, United Kingdom
I am a Biomedical Engineer passionate about human health and wellbeing. My interdisciplinary research focuses on multiscale biology, patient-specific modelling, organoid biology, data science and visualisation in multiple contexts, such as asthma, morphogenesis, cancer biology, human resilience, and FGM. The ‘virtual patient’ I developed to capture asthma pathogenesis and response to therapeutic interventions successfully predicted the clinical-level impact of multiple asthma drugs, which remains unprecedented in respiratory medicine. The virtual patient has been recognised as a 'Success Story' and 'One of the Top 5 Innovations' to emerge from the University of Leicester. I led the team that co-created LeicSurveyTM: an inclusive and frictionless data gathering tool. I currently serve as Board Member for Leicester Institute for Advanced Studies.

This facilitated a highly effective tutorial, as the tutor and student could work in tandem to clarify and extend the student’s knowledge [...] The tutor is extremely knowledgeable in his subject area and was able to stimulate the student’s natural interest by sharing information that extended beyond, but was still relevant to, the work that must be covered for the syllabus."
