I work at the Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit at 15 Chaucer Road, Cambridge, as a postdoctoral associate in MR physics with Dr. Christian Schwarzbauer. Our research focuses on improvements in fMRI methodology. My doctoral research, completed September 2007 at Yale University in Biomedical Engineering, was supervised by Dr. R. Todd Constable, and focused on the optimization and application of whole-brain cerebral blood volume functional MRI.
