An anatomist with an academic background combining human biology and psychology. His research background is in behavioural neuroscience and regenerative medicine. Previous research projects have focused on the neural correlates of learning & memory, and investigating brain changes resulting from environmental enrichment.

In anatomy, the most recent research activities have focused on skull morphology and middle meningeal artery variation. Other work has included an investigation into forearm damage during radial fixation after distal radial fracture.

In medical education a current project is focussing on students attitudes towards small group teaching in anatomy and pathology.
