Biography
I completed my BSc in Psychology at UCL in 2021. I obtained my MSc degree in Clinical Neuroscience at UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology in 2022. I investigated novel pathogenic variants in complex neurodevelopmental movement disorders, under the supervision of Professor Henry Houlden and Doctor Stephanie Efthymiou at UCL Neurogenetics lab. In 2022, I also received NIHR Pre-doctoral fellowship award. I am currently working as a research fellow under the supervision of Professor Ley Sander and Professor Gagandeep Singh at National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery. I am also a part-time PG Dip Epidemiology student at London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, funded by NIHR.
