    Interests

    As a Wellcome Trust fellow and Speech and Language Therapist, I aim to investigate the neural correlates underlying linguistic heterogeneity in aging and dementia. Through my PhD, I hope to characterize cognitive-linguistic profiles across Alzheimer's disease and Frontotemporal dementia as a continuum, employing multimodal neuroimaging, biomarkers, and neuropathology to identify the pathophysiological and neurocognitive mechanisms driving this heterogeneity.
