Research

I am currently working under supervision of in The MRI Study of Normal Brain Development, otherwise known as the NIHPD This large-scale multi-center study is tracking around 450 children using both MRI and various behavioural tests with the goal of learning “how the brain develops in normal, healthy children and adolescents”. Previously I was working in Innovative Scientific Solutions Inc. Dayton, OH in the field of optical measurements. I completed my Ph.D. thesis in Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh UK. The title of my thesis was “Development and Analysis of Data Processing Methods Applied to Luminescent Coating Systems in Aerodynamics”.
