Academics

Welcome

I am teaching engineering mathematics as well as electricity and electronics related modules. This page gives a summary of my research interests.

Research Interests

I am interested in the applications of Biomedical Engineering to the treatment and understanding of cerebrovascular diseases (stroke and arteriovenous malformations in particular). My work combines the processing of medical images of the brain with the modelling of blood dynamics.
