I am a machine learning researcher and manager, currently leading the AI research team in precision medicine at Exscientia, where our work focuses on oncology and phenotype-driven drug discovery. Throughout my career, my research has consistently explored how AI systems can adapt and learn in dynamic environments, particularly in computer vision applications.
Prior to joining Exscientia, I spent four years at the autonomous driving startup FiveAI (acquired by Bosch). There, I led research on advancing robust autonomous systems: adapting foundation models to new environments without retraining, developing meta-learning approaches, and understanding vulnerability to adversarial attacks. I also developed and published new methods for video tracking, segmentation, and hierarchical classification. I completed my PhD at the University of Oxford (2014-2018), where I wrote my thesis on Learning (to learn) from a few examples.
You can find the full list of my publications on Google Scholar.
I believe we are living in one of the most interesting and consequential times in history, and I am motivated to advance technologies for human flourishing as both a researcher and an engineer.
