Higher Degree by Research Candidate
Adelaide Dental School
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
The area of my research is based on oral anatomical variations with a focus on size and shape differences on teeth, palate and the dental arches. I am implementing a complex systems approach to my analysis. I plan to expand my research to include facial profiles and incorporate machine learning technologies to automate orofacial analysis of large data sets. I am a clinician in both public and private general dental practice, this provides me with clinical insights to underpin my research interests. It also helps me understand the relevant clinical applications of my research.
