Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTom Kirk is a biomedical engineer and founder with eight years’ experience translating neuroimaging research into commercial medical technology. As Co-founder and CEO of Quantified Imaging and former DPhil researcher at Oxford, he specializes in non-invasive physiological MRI (ASL/CEST) for dementia diagnosis and has a track record of moving methods from variational Bayesian inference into publishable, product-ready workflows. He thrives leading small, cross-disciplinary teams through early proof-of-concept to spin-out, and combines hands-on full-stack development (demonstrated with the rapid VaxiMap build) with customer and partner development. His work spans academic rigour and practical engineering—comfortable with FSL, TensorFlow and the complete medical image analysis pipeline. Based in London, he pairs entrepreneurial grit with domain expertise and an ability to ship critical tools quickly under pressure. An underappreciated strength is his experience interfacing with regulators and manufacturers, honed during rapid-response projects like OxVent.
