Shaping safer, more trustworthy AI.

Her work includes a published paper in JMIR Mental Health, work in BJPsych Bulletin, a Military Medicine paper accepted for publication, and a conference paper presented at AIiH 2026 at Imperial College London.
In June 2026, she presented at the UNIDIR Global Conference on AI, Security and Ethics in Geneva, addressing why AI systems can struggle to distinguish distress from threat.
Clinical judgement belongs in the room.
MedRostrum exists to prepare clinicians to work with AI and bring clinical judgement into how healthcare AI is built, evaluated and governed.
WHY MEDROSTRUM
Clinical judgement belongs in the room.
Healthcare AI is increasingly being developed, evaluated and introduced into clinical practice without enough involvement from the clinicians who understand the people it will affect. Clinicians also need the knowledge and confidence to question these technologies on their own terms.
In psychiatry, understanding what someone says is not always the same as understanding what they mean. Clinical judgement depends on context, insight and recognising the limits of an account. AI systems trained on human language and preferences do not automatically possess that judgement.
