Introduction
I originally trained in applied mathematics, computer sciences and project management, and worked for over a decade in the Information and Communication Technologies industry, where I held a variety of positions (analyst/programmer, junior consultant, sales engineer, major account manager). I returned
to higher education as a mature student, and obtained a PhD in Science and Technology Studies from University College London in 2010, funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council. I joined the Department of Global Health & Social Medicine at King's College London in 2014,
where I am senior research fellow of the Foresight & Responsible Research and Innovation Lab. For over six years until March 2020 I was part of the Ethics and Society group of the Human Brain Project (HBP), EU Future and Emerging Technologies flagship, for which I have conducted research on ethical and social aspects of computational neuroscience and related technologies (such as AI, robotics, neurotechnology, brain-inspired computing), contributing to the development and deployment of responsible research and innovation (RRI) practices across the HBP. Alongside ongoing research projects, I am currently RRI lead for two Centres of Doctoral Training at King's College London - in Smart Medical Imaging, and in Safe and Trusted AI.
