Biography

Dr Gregory Scott is an Academic Neurologist and NIHR-funded Research Fellow at Imperial College London (Department of Brain Sciences) and a Group Leader at the UK DRI Centre for Care Research & Technology. Dr Scott is rare as an academic neurologist in having a highly computational background: before medicine, he studied computer science, and his broad research interests are at the intersection of engineering, neuroscience, information theory, and neurology. Dr Scott aims to be a leading clinician scientist and expert in abnormal states of consciousness, conducting innovative research that addresses clinically important questions about how brain dynamics linked to abnormal conscious states arise, and how they can be measured and manipulated. He is particularly interested in ‘transdiagnostic’ approaches that can lead to general-purpose measurement devices and tools.
