Virtual Reality in Mental Health

Machine Learning in ECT

Currently leading a newly formed collaboration between Waikato DHB and the computer science department at the University of Auckland applying machine learning algorithms to improve treatment protocols for ECT and examination of ictal factors. Analysis of treatment and baseline EEGs will be completed alongside other routinely collected ECT data. Following a proof-of-concept study additional sites will be invited to utilise the same analysis. Future work will include prospective data collection and the development of an international consortium.

Digital Data Collection

The development of a digital data collection platform for Wales was initially completed to completed for the large-scale sepsis prevalence studies. This utilised OpenDataKit, Enketo online forms and the Amazon Web Services (AWS) to support a range of project from examination of advanced practice nursing students (OSCE setting), audits on deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis in psychiatric inpatient wards and research modules for medical students. These projects particularly helped show how medical students can form a valuable part of data collection work with several hundred students involved across Wales.

Emotion Regulation

Work on emotion regulation in junior doctors started off as a secondary analysis on video diaries and interviews collected by the Medical Education Research Institute at Cardiff University for a preparedness for practice projected completed for the General Medical Council (GMC).

Neuropsychiatric Genetics

During medical school and the Foundation Programme I was involved with several projects in neuropsychiatric genetics with a focus on copy number variants (CNVs). This started as a student selected component (SSC) during year 3 of medical school focused on the prevalence of other psychiatric co-morbidities in patients with 22q.11.2 deletion syndrome. As a Pathfinder Fellow with the Royal College of Psychiatrists I was able to travel to Vancouver, Canada, to spend time at the BC Children’s Hospital with a research group from the University of British Columbia. This project was focused on building a case series of patients with 2q31.2q32.3 Deletion Syndrome and autism and involved use of online genetics databases.

Intensive Care

Multiple studies were completed in collaboration between Cardiff University and the various District Health Boards in Wales. This was organised by our Size of Sepsis in Wales steering group and the subsequent Welsh Digital Data Collection Platform (WDDCP). Our first study included four hospitals and 80 medical students over 24-hours with other studies including several hundred students and as many as 16 hospitals. A wide range of publications resulted from this work which also included a project on insertion lines.

Other projects

• My final year-project for the BSc in Molecular Medicine and Biochemistry involved attempts to stop protein aggregation using custom-designed peptides and PCR. This work was never published or presented after the dissertation was completed.
