Research Interests

The true, three-dimensional architecture of the brain. What does the brain tissue really look like on a microstructural level and how is it organised? The applicaton of ultra-high resolution synchrotron techniques to visualise the 3D microstructural environment in brain tissue and gain a better understanding of how structural features contribute to the low resolution signals obtained with diffusion MRI
