My research is focused on the data acquisition and processing for imaging brain function using magnetic resonance imaging (functional MRI or fMRI). Projects include development of rapid image acquisition techniques such as spiral-scan MRI, analysis and elimination of physiological noise (cardiac, respiration) using acquisition and processing methods, elimination of movement artifacts through image registration, characterization of the fMRI temporal response to very short stimuli, and development of image processing and reconstruction methods. In addition to methodological developments, I collaborate closely with cognitive neuroscientists and statisticians on the design of acquisition and processing methods for fMRI experiments.
