I am a physics graduate student interested in researching low-field MRI as well as MRI diffusion techniques.

I will be researching low-field MRI techniques from an experimental/computational perspective and will learn how to encode pulse sequences and construct and test RF coils.

I am interested in using diffusion imaging to reconstruct white matter pathways in the brain, particularly in the prefrontal cortex. 

Currently I am working on modelling the short association fibers in the prefrontal cortex using diffusion tractography, with the goal to reconstruct short-range cortical connections that have been previously described in non-human primate histology.

Computational research assistant that focuses on analysis of genomics data. I am interested in applying imaging data in machine learning and integrating imaging with genomics. I am currently in the masters program to get better understanding of how medical imaging is done and it's applications in research

I am a part-time master's student in Master of Imaging Science (MIS) and also work as a lab manager. The MIS program has been incredibly beneficial for me, fitting seamlessly into my schedule while providing opportunities for personal and professional growth. It allows me to enhance my skills and knowledge while I continue my work in the lab.

I work to visualize high resolution structures of various biological samples, including neuronal cells, bacterial cells and purified proteins, using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM).
