Welcome
Welcome to my modest website. After a successful eight years spent as a software developer in the finance and publishing industry, I have returned to my research roots, and can now be found at the Dementia Research Centre, part of UCL, where, in conjunction with CMIC and IXICO Ltd. I look at various imaging techniques to assess efficacy and safety of new treatments for Alzheimer's Disease.
I gained my PhD. in medical image processing from King's College London in June 2000, and until May 2008 worked in a variety of software development roles including senior developer, team lead and technical architect. I'm a Sun Certified Java Programmer and Web Component Developer. I have particular interests in design patterns, refactoring, agile methodology and lightweight POJO development using products such as Spring and Hibernate. With this experience gained, I returned to do some more research.

The details of my research progress will be posted here.
Links
I certainly won't bore you with a blog. Why not read the sort of stuff I like reading. From my commercial days I regularly visit: The Server Side, InfoQ, Spring Framework and Ruby on Rails amongst many others. More often these days, I can be found reading academic papers, and use software such as FreeSurfer, FSL and ITK++.
