Dr Marta Morgado CorreiaUniversity positionMRI Physicist Dr Marta Morgado Correia is pleased to consider applications from prospective PhD students. InstitutesMRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit Research ThemesInterestsMy main research interest is in diffusion MRI, an imaging modality which has been shown to provide useful information about the microstructural architecture of the brain. I am currently working on projects using diffusion MRI to study Parkinson's disease, stroke and healthy ageing. I am also interested in developing methods for high resolution fMRI acquisition, in particular applied to pattern-information decoding in the visual cortex.
