Research interests
The aim of Professor Law's research is to determine imaging, genomic, other biomarkers in the early diagnosis of neurogenerative diseases (e.g. Alzheimers Disease), apply artificial intelligence for diagnoses and test new therapeutic agents in clinical trials.
Professor Law's research centres on pre-clinical and translational clinical imaging in neurological disease but also some non-neurological diseases. He utilises state of the art and ultra-high field MRI, PET, CT, magnetic particle imaging, photon microscopy approaches towards imaging pathology. He also houses a data warehouse and repository for imaging, genomics, biomarker, pathology and other data to be used for machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence applications in diagnostics and therapeutics. Professor Law also performs pre-clinical and clinical trials on novel therapeutics in neurodegenerative diseases and non-neurological diseases.
