Delay Discounting as a Transdiagnostic Neural Phenotype
One of the most exciting applications of clinical neuroscience is to explain and predict individual differences in psychiatric symptoms. However, reproducibility remains a central challenge to this work because studies often report conflicting results and growing evidence suggests that most …

Design and Implementation of a Wearable Device for Prosopagnosia Rehabilitation
… with prosopagnosia is a priority in the field of clinical neuroscience. The goal of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of implementing a wearable stand-alone (not connected to a PC or a smartphone) system-on-chip (SoC) that performs facial recognition and could be used to assist …

Advances in MRI to probe the functional and structural network of the macaque brain
… of diffusion MRI and fMRI in basic and clinical neuroscience, the underlying biophysical mechanisms of cerebral diffusion and the hemodynamic response remain largely unknown. Also, these neurotechnqiues suffer from low SNR compared to conventional MRI. The challenges associated with the …

Algorithms for enhanced spatiotemporal imaging of human brain function
… with high temporal resolution, and provide clinically accessible signatures of brain states. However, they have limited spatial resolution for regional dynamics. Combinations of M/EEG with functional and anatomical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can enable jointly high temporal and spatial …

Environmental influences on communication development: Implications for children with neurodevelopmental communication impairments
At the intersection of clinical neuroscience and communication sciences and disorders, this dissertation provides a compilation of studies aimed at examining contextual influences on children's communication development and the implications of this work for children with neurodevelopmental …

Multiple Sclerosis: Studies of the Interferon system and search for infectious agents
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system, characterized by focal inflammatory lesions with demyelination and axonal loss. It is believed that MS is an immune-mediated disorder with both genetic and environmental contributions to the pathogenesis. Interferons (IFNs) …

Identifying the Seizure Onset Zone using Intracranial EEG-fMRI
Simultaneous EEG-fMRI has been an effective technique for identification of the seizure onset zone (SOZ) in patients with refractory epilepsy. Recent studies have shown that using intracranial electrodes (iEEG) combined with fMRI offers unique insight into changes in blood oxygen-level dependent …

Where Does it Stem From? - Functional Neuroimaging of Monoaminergic Brainstem Nuclei in Altered States of Consciousness: Translational, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Implications
… such work has mainly been performed in preclinical animal experiments and in lesion studies, which have identified that brainstem neurotransmitter nuclei – among them in particular the monoaminergic source nuclei and transmitter systems – are consistently implicated in both pharmacological …
