Research

My primary research focuses on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and particularly Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) and its appliations to various psychiatric diseases. I develop algorithms for anlayzing medical imaging data, and am also interested in developing virutual reality paradigms for functional MRI studies.
