Work
I’m building a startup Blur Labs with Matthieu and Julián! We are building open-source AI foundation models for image reconstruction. Powering the next generation of faster, cheaper imaging devices.
Interested in imaging? Follow us on LinkedIn or get in touch with me via email or LinkedIn.
Blur Labs is based in Paris and proudly supported by Inria Startup Studio.
Research
I was a PhD researcher at the University of Edinburgh, supervised by Prof Mike Davies.
I design deep learning algorithms for solving real-world imaging inverse problems where we rarely have ground truth, such as accelerating medical imaging or higher resolution Earth observation.
I’m interested in computer vision, inverse problems, unsupervised deep learning, geometric deep learning, medical imaging and Earth observation.
Check out my CV and Google Scholar.
Software
I am a lead maintainer for DeepInverse, the PyTorch library for imaging with deep learning. We’re part of the official PyTorch ecosystem!
I’m open to freelance work - check out my project portfolio.

Non-profit advocacy work
Outside professional work, I also …
- … am a director on the board of National Trails UK, a national charity championing and campaigning for National Trails across the UK.
-
… founded and organise ESEA Outdoors UK, a national grassroots activism community to advocate for better representation, diversity and inclusion in the outdoors.
- … regularly write and speak at national festivals (see below).
