Research interests
I am a NIHR Clinician Scientist at the Department of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry.

My interests lie within four main areas – patient portals to enhance patient reported outcomes, natural language processing to refine the data extracted from free-text electronic records, data-linkage to integrate non-health data into clinical record analysis, and the integration of remote monitoring technology into clinical care.
