Research Themes
Interests
My research interests fall into two distinct categories. One involves investigating brain function/structure in a more integrative manner with structural/functional connectivity analyses. The second involves the evaluation of lesions in patients and assessing their effect on behaviour. I apply these approaches to investigate the neural basis of consciousness, language function, ageing and cognitive outcome following traumatic brain injury.
