I study problems at the crossroads of engineering, basic neuroscience, and clinical medicine. Combining my experience as a communication researcher with my current knowledge in mapping large-scale brain networks, I conceive of cognition as a macroscopic communication system spanning many brain regions, all organized within a hierarchy of time-scales.
Within this framework, I study how brain network communication enable functions such as writing to and reading from long-term memory. Additionally, I have developed tools that can detect disease-related alterations in these brain networks.
To achieve these goals in basic and applied research, I apply signal processing and machine learning techniques to data from neuroimaging modalities, including fMRI, ECoG, fNIRS
