Areas of interest
My research focuses on using neuroimaging techniques to investigate neurological and psychological conditions, with a particular interest in multimodal data integration. I study conditions such as autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and epilepsy.Recently, I have expanded my research to include the neuroimaging aspects of mild cognitive impairment and dementia, and their associations with neurodevelopmental conditions (ADHD and autism). I employ a variety of techniques and measures such as electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), non-invasive brain stimulation, polygenic scores, behavioural measures, and questionnaires.
