Data-driven Representations in Brain Science: Modelling Approaches in Gene Expression and Neuroimaging Domains
… expression data, and the macro scale of neuroscience using neuroimaging data. Different modelling approaches will be explored to understand how one can model and represent high-dimensional brain data across the specific needs in the applied fields of these two scales. Specifically, for …

Sensory and cognitive processing deficits in anxious depressed children: a neurobehavioral study
The neurobehavioral effects of anxiety and depression on functional systems of the right posterior and left frontal regions were measured in two groups of 9 to 11 year old boys to determine whether children exhibit processing and motor deficits similar to those found in previous studies of …

An Exploration of Neural Heterogeneity and its Consequences on Network Dynamics and Neuromodulation
… systems. This is especially true in the brain, where heterogeneity exists across all scales, from genetics and ion channel distribution to cell types and patterns of neuron connectivity. This heterogeneity has been linked to stable, persistent behaviour, increased information …
