Oscar MacCormac

Oscar is currently a Neurosurgery Clinical Research Fellow and PhD Student within the School of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences at King’s College London. His primary focus is with the NeuroHSI NIHR i4i funded project, in which Oscar will be working with engineering and clinical colleagues in order to develop and validate a hyperspectral imaging device for integration into the surgical workflow, aiming to improve tissue differentiation techniques and, ultimately, patient outcomes.

 

Oscar undertook his BSc at the University of Reading in Biomedical Sciences, before commencing his medical degree in 2010 at the University of Nottingham, graduating ion 2014. Since 2018, Oscar has been on a formal neurosurgical training programme and has worked at Imperial College Healthcare, Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Trust and King’s College Healthcare NHS trust as a neurosurgical registrar prior to taking time out of training to join the CAI4CAI group, under the supervision of Jonathan Shapey and Tom Vercauteren.
