Overview
The main aim of CUBRIC is to develop imaging methodology to improve characterisation of brain structure and function in health and disease. As Director of CUBRIC, my role is to oversee the scientific and strategic direction of the Centre.
My research focuses on maximising the amount of quantitative information that can be extracted about brain structure non-invasively using magnetic resonance imaging techniques. If the grey matter acts as the 'service stations' – then the white matter acts as the 'motorways' and hence forms an integral and fundamental part of brain networks.
My research has been primarily focussed on development of methods for diffusion magnetic resonance imaging and its application to both healthy and diseased states, but we are extending the range of imaging methods to include multi-component relaxometry and quantitative magnetisation transfer imaging, with the aim of providing a more complete multi-spectral characterisation of white matter. We are now combining these metrics with electrophysiological data derived from MEG.

Teaching
In the University, I teach formally on lecture course PS3209 – 'Structural and Functional Neuroimaging', which introduces the range of techniques that are used for mapping the structure and function of the human brain. My part of the course focuses on mapping brain structure, and includes methods for analysis of standard structural MRI data, as well as of diffusion MRI data.
I also teach at the postgraduate level on the use of diffusion MRI. Formal courses are held throughout the year and cover both theoretical aspects of diffusion MRI as well as practical 'hands on' sessions with software developed in CUBRIC.
Finally, I am a regular lecturer at international brain imaging conferences (notably the International Society for Magnetic Resonance In Medicine, and the ESMRMB Lectures on Diffusion).

Postgraduate research interests
My research is focussed on imaging of brain structure both at the macro- and micro-structural level. I am interested in how we may predict brain function from quantitative assessment of brain structure, particularly of the white matter which forms the connections between different brain regions. Without a detailed understanding of the connections and connectivity of the brain, we cannot fully understand how the brain functions. Yet this is an area largely overlooked in cognitive neuroscience. My research looks to fill these gaps in our knowledge. I employ a range of techniques including diffusion tensor imaging, relaxometry, volumetry and magnetization transfer imaging and combine these measures with assessment of brain function using both traditional cognitive tests and state-of-the-art neuroimaging methods to assess brain function, including functional MRI, magnetoencephalography (MEG) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
Opportunities for research cover all parts of the spectrum from basic methods development (suited to the more technically oriented), through to pure applications-driven research applying these methods to the study of the healthy and diseased brain.
If you are interested in applying for a PhD, or for further information regarding my postgraduate research, please contact me directly (contact details available on the 'Overview' page), or submit a formal application.
