Our Team

Deliberate designer & empirical philosopher of playful & engaging things

I lead the Mood Instability Research team in the Division of Psychiatry, Department of Brain Sciences at Imperial College London and I also work as a Honorary Consultant Psychiatrist in the West London Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, where I am the Clinical Lead for the 16-25 Young Adult Partnership model. RESEARCH My research takes an experimental medicine and cognitive phenotyping approach to investigate the processes that underlie emotional dysregulation and mood instability across mental disorders. I focus on young people vulnerable to mood instability with the aim of developing innovative early interventions. A special interest of my work is how mental imagery-based cognition, such as episodic future simulation, may contribute to mood instability and self-harm behaviour in young people.
