Education:

Keywords: Basic and Clinical Neuroimaging, Cerebral Blood Flow

Research and/or Clinical Interests:
Developing and validating neuroimaging biomarkers of disease progression and therapeutic response in the brain.

Summary:
My research interests include cerebrovascular physiology, physiology of functional activation, cognitive neuroimaging, and clinical applications of functional neuroimaging, particularly in stroke and epilepsy. Current research interests represent an integrated program that ranges from basic investigations to clinical diagnosis and is consolidated around several topics, all of which pertain to neuroimaging in neuropsychiatric disorders of the CNS.
