Slideshow

Neuroimaging Program Distinguished Speaker

Paul D. Coverdell Center for Biomedical and Health Sciences Room 175

Susan Whitfield-Gabrieli will present “Clinical Applications of Resting State Networks: Clinical Characterization, Novel Treatments and Prediction of Clinical Outcome” as part of the Franklin Foundation Neuroimaging Program lecture series.

Whitfield-Gabrieli is a research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She is interested in how analyses of brain imaging data can shed light on the neural mechanisms subserving normal cognition and how disturbances of those mechanisms impair cognition in neurological and psychiatric diseases. Her research interests include: psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and depression; age-related disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment (MCI); and developmental disorders such as dyslexia. Her current research focuses on the development of quantitative methods to analyze data from functional magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion tensor imaging and event related potential. Whitefield-Gabrieli is particularly interested using these multimodal imaging techniques to investigate functional and anatomical connectivity as well as exploring novel approaches to multimodal integration.

This Lecture Series is sponsored by the Paul D. Coverdell Neuroimaging Training Program and Fellowship from the John and Mary Franklin Foundation.
