Research Interests
My research is centered on statistical methods
for life sciences, in particular for neuroscience. During the past
few years I have been working on inverse problems and covariance
models for brain imaging techniques like MEG, EEG and EEG/fMRI.
Currently I'm involved in projects on optimizing the analysis of
EEG/fMRI data, on network analysis for the human brain, and on
network properties of neuron populations.
