Research Summary
My main research interest is in non-invasive functional imaging of the human brain using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG). I have a specific focus on vision and the underlying neurophysiology of MEG and BOLD-fMRI signals. A recently developed interest has been the dependency of these measures on GABAergic inhibition.
Teaching Summary
Module leader for PS3209: “Structural & Functional Neuroimaging. This is a course which is designed to give students with a Psychology or Life-Sciences background an insight into the principles behind modern non-invasive neuroimaging techniques. Topics covered include: The principles of MRI and structural imaging, DTI, fMRI, TMS, neurophysiology, EEG and MEG.

Postgraduate Students
Postgraduate Research Interests
I am interested in supervising PhD projects in multi-modal functional neuroimaging methods and applications (MEG and fMRI), with a specific focus on vision and the underlying neurophysiology of MEG and BOLD-fMRI signals. A recent developing interest has been the dependency of these measures on GABAergic inhibition.
If you are interested in applying for a PhD, or for further information regarding my postgraduate research, please contact me directly (contact details available on the 'Overview' page), or submit a formal application here.
