About:
I am an Instructor in investigation at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Previously, I was a Research Fellow under a joint supervision by Dr. Bruce Fischl, Dr. Adrian Dalca at the Laboratory for Computational Neuroimaging (LCN) and Dr. Brian Edlow at the Laboratory for NeuroImaging of Coma and Consciousness (NICC). I received my Ph.D degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Southern California in 2019, advised by Dr. Richard Leahy at the Biomedical Imaging Group. My research interests lie in the application of statistical signal and image processing and machine learning theory to modeling and analysis of neuroimaging data. Of particular recent interest, I’m focusing on the development of computational methods for functional connectivity analysis and functional registration.
