Biography

My research aims to understand the role of brain chemistry in mental illness and to identify different subtypes of Illness that might show different responses to drug treatments. In particular I am interested in how differences in brain glutamate levels may predict response to antipsychotic drugs and antidepressants. I am also involved in research on the gut microbiome and it's role in depression and anxiety, as well as on ketamine and psilocybin in the treatment of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). My research encompasses a variety of methods including clinical trials, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging and psychological testing.
