Structural biophysicist and deep tech founder with a Cambridge PhD (Herchel Smith Fellow). My doctoral research used synchrotron SAXS, biophysical characterisation, and computational modelling to investigate TGF-β superfamily signalling. I have since co-founded two companies - BravelyCultured (Cambridge biotech, £490K+ raised) and Repliqease (ML/AI, multimodal video analysis) - while maintaining an active research identity spanning wet lab, structural modelling, and data science. I teach, supervise, and present internationally. Currently seeking research positions and collaborations at the interface of structural biology, data science, and translational science.
Co-founded an ML/AI company developing multimodal video analysis and decision-making algorithms. Delivered proof-of-concept projects to one of the world's largest news agencies, and to robotics and manufacturing clients. Selected as a Hello Tomorrow Deep Tech Pioneer 2026 from 4,800+ applications across 108 countries.
Co-founded and led a deep tech biotech startup developing novel alternative protein production technology. Raised £490K+ across dilutive and grant funding (Carbon13, Cambridge Enterprise, UK/EU government grants). Worked with 7 industrial partners across cosmetics, agriculture, and foodtech. Managed a team of 5 and a private laboratory facility. Recognised across 8 international conferences and 6 deep tech awards; covered by 7 media outlets.
Recruited the CSO and COO to co-found BravelyCultured within the Carbon13 programme, securing initial investment to address the climate emergency through biotechnology.
Externally funded continuation of Amgen Scholars placement (2017), investigating the structural biology of follistatin - work that formed part of the foundation for subsequent doctoral research. Project focused on biophysics of growth factors and their inhibitors within the TGF-β superfamily.
Focused on fragment-based drug discovery in cancer research. Protein expression, purification, and analysis by X-ray crystallography.
Funded through laboratory research grants. Protein purification optimisation with the aim of scaling up to the industrial bioreactors and flow filtration.
