I use MRI and associated image processing techniques to investigate stroke and small vessel disease. I am interested in the application of quantitative MR techniques to neurological conditions and developing image processing tools to meet this aim.

Alex has been a Senior Research Associate in the Stroke Research group since 2016. Her primary research focus is to develop novel treatments for vascular dementia and stroke, both of which pose significant socio-economic burdens worldwide. The approach involves utilising human stem cell-based models derived from patients affected by these diseases.
