Innovation in data science and translational neuroscience to understand brain development and mental illness
RESEARCH
Our research uses advanced analytics to integrate complex brain images and rich behavioral data. Ultimately, we seek to map normal brain development and understand how alterations in brain maturation increase risk of psychiatric illness.
