I am a Lecturer at the School of Physics & Astronomy, University of St Andrews, UK. My research involves the multi-wavelength -- ultraviolet, optical and infrared -- study of accreting compact objects, such as white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes and more recently of super-massive black holes.
I am currently the PI of a Key Project at the Las Cumbres Observatory to perform reverberation mapping experiments of Active Galactic Nuclei. This project employs a world-wide network of telescopes to observe, throughout the optical part of the spectrum, variability of the material plunging into the supermassive black hole. I'm also interested in transient astronomy and instrumentation, being part of the science team behind OPTICam, a new multi-band camera for the Mexican National Observatory.
An aspiring Clinical Psychologist, currently an undergraduate studying Psychology (Integrated MSci) at the University of York. I see a future in which mental healthcare is adaptive to an individual's cultural and personal needs. I am also interested in alternative/ complimentary therapies for treatment resistant mood disorders such as deep brain stimulation and psilocybin therapy. My current research involves working with a Prosopagnosic (face blind) individual to better understand how we both learn and recognise faces.
For my Leadership in Action programme, I am working with "MakeSense", an organisation based in Mexico City. I am developing a social empowerment project supporting rural communities in Mexico.

Hello! I am Pritika and am a second-year Medical Engineering student at the University of York.
my research proposal is on how to develop a prosthetic that can grow with a child, so the child will not need to replace the prosthetic often. Furthermore, looking into the use of AI so the prosthetic can learn and develop alongside the side.
Undergraduate at Georgetown School of Foreign Service majoring in International Culture and Politics.
I am a Human Science major at Georgetown University and I am fascinated by the neurological components underlying behavior. I currently work in the Lab on Social and Affective Neuroscience at Georgetown and intern at Arlington Free Clinic and So Others Might Eat Medical Clinic. These roles all give me a different perspective on the Mind-Body Connection.
