Biography

I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in [the Connectome 2.0 group] at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Department of Radiology, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.

My current research focuses on developing advanced diffusion MRI methods to characterize brain microstructure across the lifespan and in neurodegenerative diseases, and translating these methods into clinical applications.

Research Interests

Medical image analysis (MRI and PET)
Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis)
Deep learning
Histopathology.
