As a postdoctoral researcher in the Imaging Genomics Group, my research centers on statistical modeling and the integration of quantitative neuroimaging and genomic data. We explore the interplay between genetic factors and brain microstructure. Specifically, we try to understand how brain networks enable the ability to read and how these networks are affected in dyslexia. Using such multimodal data, we aim to understand mechanisms of various polygenic brain traits in a data-driven way.
