I started working at the FANS department at the IoPPN, King’s College London as a Clinical Research Worker in November 2016. Currently I am working on my PhD project investigating the role of cerebral GABAergic circuitry in the Excitation-Inhibition balance in adults with autism spectrum condition.  

Previously, I have obtained an Msc in Medicine from the Free University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands and a Research Msc Life Sciences from the Paris Descartes University, Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in France.  

Here at King’s College I am teaching Bsc and Msc students and assist students by providing tutorials on research-related topics.  

I am part-time working as a clinician at the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust in the Behavioral and Developmental Outpations Clinic where I see mostly patients for autism or adhd assessment and treatment.
