Bio

Tom joined CSC in October 2021 after more than 10 years working in academia as an MRI physicist. His Ph.D. was focused on the development of novel MR techniques for imaging the cardiovascular system.

Tom joined King’s College London in 2017 where he specialised developing new methods for imaging the unborn fetus inside the womb. In particular, his work focussed on creating three-dimensional representations of the fetal brain and beating fetal heart for the purposes of improving the diagnosis of congenital birth abnormalities.
