Personal profile
Expertise
Processing and analysis of neurophysiological data, with a personal focus on electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG), of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders and diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal lobar degeneration, schizophrenia, hippocampal sclerosis and multiple sclerosis.
Training machine learning algorithms on features extracted from these data to develop tools that can assist diagnosis of these disorders. Comparing patient groups with healthy control groups in statistical analyses, to try and find what parts of the brain are affected and how.
