London, England, United Kingdom
I am a clinician-scientist specialising in neurology, with a strong research focus on motor control in health and disease. Currently, I am a post-doctoral fellow exploring human motor control and neuromotor interfacing -- investigating how muscle signals can be used for interfacing with virtual devices. With a background in clinical medicine, experimental and computational neuroscience, and translational research, I am passionate about advancing neurotechnological solutions for motor disorders. In addition to my academic and clinical experience, I am eager to expand my expertise into the business and logistical aspects of medical device development and healthcare consulting. I am particularly interested in bridging the gap between cutting-edge research and its application in clinical practice.
InterACt is a national group which is comprised of IAT Leads for the Medical Schools / Universities which offer clinical academic training along the IAT pathway; Programme Managers who are responsible for clinical academic training in Deaneries and representatives from groups which include NIHR, English Deans, Academy of Medical Sciences and Academy of Medical Royal Colleges. The group meets at least twice a year and its role is to provide input to the strategy for development of the IAT pathway and integrated academic training in general at a national level. This involves interactions with the National Institute for Health and Care Research Academy and interactions with other groups who oversee /advise on integrated academic training or clinical training in general. The group also aims to aid understanding of the challenges of academic training within the current training environment and to engender a supportive environment in clinical departments and research institutions where clinical academic training takes place and to provide a forum for sharing best practice in management on the IAT pathway by academic leads.
