Multi-Scale and Multi-Modality Imaging of Neuropathology in VCID

This study aims to advance understanding of neurodegeneration in VCID by developing postmortem MRI protocols, computational tools, and multi-modal atlases, standardizing MRI and histology methods, and creating extensive imaging and biomaterial resources to support research in AD, ADRD, and related pathologies.

Noninvasive Estimation of Electrical Properties from Magnetic Resonance Measurements

This project develops a three-pronged strategy—combining global inverse modeling, physics-informed neural networks, and vision transformers—to generate high-resolution maps of tissue electrical properties using MRI, with broad applications in medical imaging and treatment.
