    Interests

    I work in the intersection between neurology and ophthalmology. My research focuses on inherited/mitochondrial optic neuropathies and the experiences of individuals affected by these rare forms of degenerative blindness. Through the Cambridge Clinical Vision Laboratory (https://www-neurosciences.medschl.cam.ac.uk/mitocamb/clinical-vision-lab/), I am also involved in clinical studies characterising the neuro-ophthalmic manifestations of neurological disorders. I also host 'The LHON and Short of It', a podcast exploring Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON): https://www.buzzsprout.com/2315393
