The world of life and sensory sciences has always been home base for me.

I began my life sciences arc in sensory experiences, working on analytical flavour systems and synthetic data for CPG and pharmaceutical companies. Now, I'm exploring how we can digitize the sensory experience for applications in diagnostics, treatment, consumer and patient simulation, and, of course, consumer down the road.

Adjacent to this is how we can integrate emerging technologies into the brain, whether it be for research and encodement (understanding/visualizing the brain) or to push human capacities beyond what is currently possible (making humans superhuman). Beyond AI/ML, this looks like AR/VR/XR.

And of course, because my earliest roots are grounded in health policy and governance, I'm exploring what the world of regulation and best practices looks for novel tech in biology.

Key questions and areas of exploration:

  • Multimodal sensory integration - mapping and encoding sensory modalities, with special interest (and challenges) in the olfactory and gustatory cortices. For application in neurological disease detection and treatment, BCIs, and wearables. Great potential for applications in CPG innovation/product development and UX/UI.

  • Developing a digital twin of the human brain - inspired by the work done by the Human Connectome Project, building a virtual brain as an in silico testing environment for drug and test trials with reduced human risk.

P.S. I run a digital (soon to be hybrid) community of 150+ computational neuroscience/biology hackers globally. Message me with a line of what you're working on and I'll send you an invite.

Newton's apple-gravity story was a bridge between sensory science and physics, if you really think about it.
