My scientific research interests include the biological origins of human sexual orientation, gender nonconformity, and quantitative approaches to understanding sexual orientation-related mental health disparities and LGBTQ+ health (https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/lgbtq-mental-health-research-group).
