As part of the layer-fMRI research group within the Laboratories for Computational Neuroimaging, I work on high resolution functional brain imaging methods at 7T.
I am a neurophysicist interested in developing and applying MRI acquisition and analysis methods to understand physiological and neuronal signals at sub-millimeter scales. I develop and optimize MRI sequences to continuously increase the spatial resolution of fMRI in living human brains to capture blood volume and oxygenation changes at the spatial scale of cortical layers and columns. Functional mapping of these brain structures potentially allows researchers to address questions of directional neural information flow within and across brain systems.
I develop and distribute analysis tools for signal reconstruction and extraction of such data.
