Background
I am a Ph.D. student in Precision Medicine at the University of Edinburgh, where my research focuses on investigating the impact of air pollution on dementia risk and uncovering the underlying mechanisms. My research interests include omics, genetics, twin studies, life course epidemiology, and biological aging.
