Biography

My research aims to identify the neural circuits that modulate the transmission of pain and its emotional consequences. Using a combination of in vivo electrophysiology, optogenetics/chemogenetics, behaviour and fMRI, I aim to understand how chronic pain and co-morbid mood disorders mutually reinforce. I am also interested in translational research and bridging the gap between bench and bedside.

In 2022 I won the Prof Anthony Mellows Medal/King's Prize Fellowship.
