PHD STUDENT

During my PhD, I am integrating science and technology to understand how our brain constructs representations of the world and uses them to remember, navigate and imagine space across the lifespan and the neurobiological mechanisms underlying such processes, using various techniques including brain imaging (including fNIRS and fMRI), neuropsychological testing, eye-tracking and virtuality reality. This is with the aim of developing navigation-based tests to help diagnose those with neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s Disease.
