Overview
I am a Research Associate with a background in Cognitive Neuroscience. I am based in the Marie Curie Palliative Care Research Centre (MCPCRC) team in the Division of Population, School of Medicine.
My doctoral degree focused on the development of a simple screening tool for the cognitive deficits experienced by patients with High-Grade Glioma (HGG) after recieving radiotherapy.
I am currently working towards further validating this screening tool and determining its feasability in practice.
