Biography

Robert has previously worked as a Specialist Clinical Physiologist (Neurophysiology) and was employed within the Clinical Neurophysiology Department at University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff . He is currently undertaking a PhD within the Neonatal Brain Research Group, Cork University Maternity Hospital as part of the NEOPRISM project.

The overall objective of his project is to help develop an automated neonatal EEG classification algorithm, based on advanced feature extraction and machine learning techniques that could be used for constant surveillance of the neonatal EEG in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). He also aims to combine the automated assessment of neonatal EEG abnormality, seizure activity, and other physiological markers to produce an overall index of neonatal brain health.
