I am an Assistant Professor in Healthcare Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity in the Faculty of Population Health Sciences at University College London, where I lead the CRASH Team (Cybersecurity Resiliency & AI Safety in Healthcare, Research Team). I also work with the wonderful team at the Centre for Healthcare Cybersecurity, University of California San Diego, as a Cybersecurity Researcher where I developed CIPHER - the first tool to model patient-level harms from hospital cyberattacks. As an Emergency Doctor, with a PhD in Artificial Intelligence, and industry experience as a cybersecurity analyst, I focus my research on the intersection of emerging technologies and patient safety. On this website, you will find copies of my research talks, publications, media interviews and contact details for getting in touch.

​

My work involves collaborations with national and global institutions on the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure and the risks of frontier AI models, including the United Nations, the International Research Centre on Artificial Intelligence, the British Standards Institution, the UK Medical Royal Colleges, and governmental agencies in both the UK and US. My research has informed WHO policy guidance, UK Parliamentary and NHS frameworks, and UN AI governance reports. I contributed to UNESCO’s 2019 and 2021 global Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence and continue to contribute to international UN guidance as an expert author on AI and Gender. I have delivered over 70 invited talks (including DEF CON, UK Cabinet Office GCAB, and May Contain Hackers), and my work has been featured by 15+ international media outlets across the UK, USA, Germany, Australia, and global UN platforms, including interviews with the BBC and feature pieces in WIRED & The Independent.
