Research Themes:
i) Machine learning for individual patient predictions – diagnostic and prognostic. Initial work focused on proof of concept studies using research data, now focused on application to routinely acquired NHS data, with a particular emphasis on fully integrating the techniques into routine clinical practice. Recent success in obtaining MRC Programme Grant funding.,ii) Mechanisms research, which include computational modelling of behaviour and brain function (model-based fMRI, forward translation), neurosurgical studies on therapeutic interventions for brain disorders and back translation from functional brain imaging studies on patients to animals for drug discovery.,Techniques: structured psychiatric clinical assessment, neuropsychological testing, reinforcement learning and neuroeconomics paradigms, Matlab programming, fMRI, GABA spectroscopy, computational modelling of brain and behaviour, diffusion tensor imaging, machine learning, PET and EEG source reconstruction.
