About me

I trained in medicine at the University of Vienna, Austria and Université Pierre et Marie Curie Paris 6, Paris, France. I was awarded a PhD in Clinical Neurosciences from the University of Cambridge in 2008, where I studied the molecular pathology of Parkinson’s disease. I completed my postgraduate medical training and neurology training in hospitals in and around London, including the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery and St. George’s Hospital. I then pursued a postdoctoral research fellowship at the UCL Institute of Neurology, where I studied the role of microglia (the immune cells of the brain) in Alzheimer’s disease. I now work as a Consultant Neurologist at St. George’s Hospital in London where I am part of the acute/emergency neurology service and run a motor neuron disease and myasthenia gravis clinic.
