I am a General Surgical Registrar in the London deanery with an interest in Colorectal surgery. Currently working towards my PhD as Darzi Clinical Research Fellow at Imperial College.My project 'Characterising the role of digital and AI approaches to enhance remote undergraduate medical education globally' looks at ways remote teaching tools such as specialised telecommunication platforms and LLMs (Large Language Models) can be used in medical education, particularly in austere environments. We are working with multiple sites in Ukraine to ensure that high-quality medical education can continue.I am also the Academic Director at Medset, a training and professional development organisation for doctors and healthcare professionals, and those applying to medical and dental school. Teaching is a major passion of mine and I'm proud that we have trained thousands of students and professionals in ways that have enhanced their careers.Newsletter Editor at www.OnCall.NewsWritten for doctors by doctors, this weekly email newsletter is about developing the community that has unfortunately been so lacking amongst the medical community in recent years. With our 5000 subscribers, we discuss the issues impacting medics, whilst exploring and celebrating what it means to be a doctor.Since retired, but honoured to have previously played for Nigeria Rugby in tournaments across Africa.I have further interests in entrepreneurship, public speaking and youth engagement, and am always open to collaboration.
