I am a neurosurgical registrar on the North Thames training rotation. I have worked at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, King's College Hospital, Queen's Hospital Romford, and the Royal London Hospital. I am now pursuing a PhD at the Institute of Child Health, having been appointed to the first GOSH Charity funded Surgeon Scientist Fellowship. My project, supervised by Professor Chris Clark and Mr Kristian Aquilina, is on advanced MR imaging for surgery of posterior fossa brain tumours in children, in particular studying the development of posterior fossa syndrome and surgical guidance to avoid it.
