About

Hi! I’m Jennifer — a founder and research engineer working on AI in healthcare. My work sits at a unique intersection of taking AI into live clinical use inside real hospital environments, and building the open-source infrastructure that lets others get there too.

I started dotimplement after seeing the gap from the inside: healthcare runs on impressive models and demos, but almost no robust tooling to test, evaluate, and ship them reliably — so I’m building the thing I wished existed. Open source for everyone! Plus a little consulting for teams I want to work with.

Currently building HealthChain, a Python SDK for building, testing, and deploying AI in real healthcare systems — handling the FHIR and EHR integration that usually blocks it.

Previously

I spent several years building clinical AI in the NHS, as a senior software developer and honorary researcher across the Institute of Health Informatics at UCL and the UCLH Clinical Research Informatics Unit. I led the build of MiADE, a clinical NLP system that extracts diagnoses in real time at the point-of-care — now in live use at two major NHS hospitals, UCLH and Great Ormond Street Hospital, integrated with Epic (paper). I also led the LLM engineering (miade-llm) on a £605k EPSRC/UKRI project extending that work.

Before that, I came to software through neuroscience — researching the neural basis of spatial navigation in the Barry lab at UCL, then switching fields through one of the most selective CS conversion degrees at Imperial College London, working on deep learning and brain–computer interfaces (thesis).

Off the clock

Away from a keyboard, I’m usually under a barbell or doing a Hyrox with my husband. I watch a lot of arthouse cinema (Letterboxd), and probably spend too much time on cat photography (@ladywhiskerson).

Elsewhere

I speak fairly often on building and deploying open-source AI in healthcare — including invited talks and panels at the Alan Turing Institute and the Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics; there’s more on the media page.

I hold an MSc in Computing Science from Imperial College London, and an MSc in Clinical Neuroscience and a BSc in Human Sciences from UCL.
