Description of Research Expertise
I have research expertise in the following areas:1. Visual neuroscience including encoding of visual information in neural networks, modeling of neural networks, and visual signal processing using perceptual and electrophysiologic metrics.
2. Application of model-based fitting to analysis of symptom clusters in youth with headache.
3. Biomarker clinical research, particularly related to concussion and headache in pediatric populations.
4. Use of biosensors to continuously monitor real-world light exposure.
5. Computer software programing using Matlab coding language.
