Teaching
I lead tutorial sessions for the MSc in Neuroimaging Methods and Applications at the School of Psychology.
My research focuses on understanding the relationship between the brain's microstructure and its functional performance.
I use diffusion and microstructural MRI to map the human brain's structural connectome. I use MEG to map the brain's functional connectome. I also use graph theory to elucidate the properties of those networks.
