Research Interests
I am a BHF Clinical Research Training Fellow within the Section of CardioRespiratory Medicine, based at the Heart and Lung Research Institute on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus. My research principally involves the use of 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/MRI to visualise and investigate the role of macrophage-driven inflammation across a range of cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis and large vessel vasculitis. My main current project aims to investigate the role of inflammation in adverse cardiac remodelling after myocardial infarction.

I have also previously supervised for the Part II PDN modules “Systems and Clinical Physiology” and “Fetal and Placental Physiology”.
