Imaging the Human Brain Connectome and its application to Psychiatric Disorders. [ 2015 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Mayuresh Korgaonkar (Principal investigator)

Brief description The human brain has long been conceptualized as a complex neural network. The connections of this network are yet to be characterized in full detail. Only recent technological advances in imaging have made possible to visualize the network architecture of the living brain. My fellowship will focus on using MRI techniques to map the interconnected network of the brain also called as the “connectome” and apply this knowledge to advance the understanding of neuropsychiatric disorders.
