Dr Manfred Kitzbichler University positionResearch Associate DepartmentsDepartment of Psychiatry and Department of Psychology InstitutesBehavioural and Clinical Neuroscience Institute and Brain Mapping Unit Home pagehttp://bcni.psychol.cam.ac.uk/~mk556/ (personal home page) Research ThemesInterestsHaving a physics background, I am applying general concepts to the analysis of brain activation. This involves both fMRI and MEG, resting state as well as task related data. In particular I am interested in understanding the spatio-temporal dynamics in different brain states.  Network of 90 brain regions as nodes and edges between them according to connection strength. See also http://sms.cam.ac.uk/collection/1587354 Click image to view full-size Research Focus
