My first experience of medical imaging was during my master's degree course at University College London, where I worked on visualization of diffusion tensor and fiber tracking data under the supervision of Daniel Alexander. I developed and applied image processing algorithms for tractography within the Medical Imaging Processing Group (MIPG), which later became the Medical Imaging Theme (MITh), which later became part of the Medical Image Computing (MedIC) center, which almost became the Centre Of Medical Image Computing (COMIC) before becoming the excellent Center for Medical Image Computing (CMIC). Somewhere between MedIC and CMIC I worked extensively on Camino, a free, open-source diffusion MRI toolkit. My current research interests are in the quantification of uncertainty in fiber tracking and clinically useful markers of "connectivity" via white matter structures. I am also interested in other aspects of diffusion imaging such as the optimization of the acquisition.
