Interests

I am a research associate at the Alzheimer's Research UK Drug Discovery Institute where I work as a medicinal chemist on a variety of projects related to neurodegeneration. With expertise in drug discovery, organic chemistry and chemical biology, I work alongside the other scientists at the DDI to help translate the latest ideas in dementia research into new drug discovery projects.
