Profile
I am a PhD student examining the patterns and clinical relevance of infections during the multiple sclerosis (MS) prodrome and after diagnosis, using primary care data from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink. My work aims to enhance understanding of early disease manifestations and to inform approaches for earlier detection, diagnosis, and holistic management of MS. I contribute part-time to the ADAMS study led by Dr Ben Jacobs and to the UK MS Pregnancy Register led by Prof Ruth Dobson.
Research
Research Interests:
My research focuses on improving early detection, diagnosis, and management of neurological diseases, particularly Multiple Sclerosis (MS). I am also committed to addressing healthcare inequalities and exploring the impact of social determinants on neurological health.
