GAME CHANGER
“I’M ON A MISSION TO … REVOLUTIONISE MENTAL HEALTHCARE”
DR EMILIA MOLIMPAKIS
Neuroscientist and co-founder of thymia (she/her)
Emilia is a neuroscientist with a PhD & post-doc from UCL in Linguistics, Neuroscience & Psychology. She is an expert in using language as a biomarker for cognition – there are fewer than 10 people in the world doing exactly what she does! Her startup, thymia, uses video game-inspired technology to help doctors quickly, accurately and objectively assess and monitor depression via digital biomarkers.
Emilia won the Young Innovator’s Award 2020-21 and was recently named one of the top scientists for mental health worldwide. She is also a massive foodie and she enjoys rowing and gaming.
