Alison studied Physics and Medical Physics culminating in a PhD thesis entitled ‘Estimating Children’s Visual Acuity with Steady-state Evoked Potentials’ then registration with the UK health and care professionals council as a Clinical Scientist. The software she developed and evaluated for her doctorate is now the subject of U.S. patents, and it’s report is highly cited in the academic literature. In the interim, Alison has worked clinically in Ophthalmology , Urology and Dermatology while performing clinical research, and translational studies into diagnostic methodology. She has recently considered the use of Photodynamic Therapy for human skin infection, leading to her presentation on nanotheranostics. In her spare time, Alison trains and competes in Masters Swimming where she holds the Scottish record for 50m backstroke (women aged 45 to 50 years) and has occasionally topped the UK rankings for 50m Butterfly in this category.
