PhD Research Fellow

I’m part of a research team utilizing various structural and functional neuroimaging techniques (structural/functional magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI/fMRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), electroencephalography (EEG), event-related potentials (ERP)) in the study of brain/behaviour interactions. The research is aimed at characterizing the dynamic relations between cerebral structural/functional and cognitive alterations accompanying normal child development and aging, but also the interruptions of this dynamics in pathological conditions like Alzheimer’s disease. Efforts are also aimed at understanding the genetic contribution to individual differences in cerebral structure, function and cognition, and further what role this genotypic variation is playing in the manifestations of pathological neurodegenerative phenotypes/conditions. For more details, please see my publications. 

I am currently a visiting researcher at Oxford Centre for Functional MRI of the Brain (FMRIB), University of Oxford, UK.
