Research Biography
My research lies at the intersection of clinical respiratory physiology, sleep medicine and health equity. My research focus is in understanding the mechanisms which contribute to airway closure in sleep apnoea. I use clinical and detailed physiology tests to predict responses to targeted and novel sleep apnoea treatments such as upper airway surgery, emerging pharmacotherapy and neurostimulation. I developed novel, physiology based techniques to test pulse oximeter accuracy across different skin tones to ensure equitable sleep apnoea diagnosis and treatment.
