I am a university graduate with a Master’s degree from UCL and an interest in age-related diseases. My degree included a year abroad at the University of Copenhagen and an extended project, where I attempted to resolve contentious evolutionary relationships between species using a novel phylogenetic inference method. I also spent time gaining research experience at the University of Helsinki before moving back to the UK in 2019 and enrolling in a 4-year doctoral training programme at KCL, where I am now applying machine learning methods to multi-dimensional and longitudinal datasets to try and predict future incidences of age-related disease.
