Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

The overarching goal of my research is to improve methods for non-invasively mapping the spatial and temporal patterns of electrophysiological activity that underlies human brain function and dysfunction. My team at the Biosignal Lab studies brain electrophysiology with magneto- and electro-encephalography (M/EEG). These technologies provide spatially and temporally rich data about the...

Recently methods to measure axon diameter distributions using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diffusion spectroscopy have been developed. Most early methods used single diffusion encoding sequences such as pulsed gradient spin echo and are thus sensitive to axons of diameters larger than 5 μm. We previously simulated oscillating gradient (OG) spin echo sequences to study smaller axons which...
