Collaborators
MEG / EEG
Our work on magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG)
is conducted in collaboration with Dr. John
C. Mosher at the Los Alamos National
Laboratory. Comparative fMRI studies are being conducted with Manbir
Singh of the Department of Radiology
and Biomedical
Engineering at USC. Additional EEG and MEG collaborators include Drs.
William Sutherling and Deborah
Arthur at the Huntington Memorial Hospital in Pasadena, California,
Dr. Sylvain Baillet at the
Cognitive Neuroscience & Brain Imaging Laboratory in Paris, the Biophysics
Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory,
Greg Simpson and colleagues at the Dynamic
Neuroimaging Laboratory at the University of California at San Francisco, and Masatake Kawada at the University of Tokushima.
PET
Our work on the development and evaluation of image reconstruction methods
for clinical and small animal Positron Emission Tomography is conducted in
collaboration with the USC PET center under the direction of Peter Conti,
Simon Cherry in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University
of California at Davis, and Ariion Chatziioannou at the Crump Institute for Biological
Imaging at UCLA.
Image Analysis
Our work on image analysis is conducted in collaboration with the
Laboratory of NeuroImaging (LONI) directed by Arthur Toga. In particular
we work with David Shattuck and Paul Thompson at LONI on automated
segmentation, labelling and parameterization of cortical and other
structures.
