Professional Statement
I research effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) on brain activation during cognitive tasks and on functional connectivity to understand the nature of neuroplasticity. My research interests include resilience of brain structures and function. My grants investigate the neural mechanisms involved in TBI and PTSD before and after novel treatments in veterans exposed to blast.

The Computational and Integrative Biomedical Research Center is a resource to help students and faculty address the broad range of analytical problems posed by the complexity of high throughput biological datasets. The goal of the center is to help bridge the translational gap from data to models, and from models to drug discovery and personalized therapy by fostering collaborations and developing original quantitative approaches to biological and clinical problems.
