I completed my honours thesis and a summer NSERC in the Köhler Lab, working with Jordan DeKraker to develop a flexible segmentation technique of the hippocampus using ultra-high resolution 7T MRI. We have now translated this segmentation technique to be able to use 3T MRI from Human Connectome Dataset, ex-vivo 9.4T MRI from medial-temporal lobe epilepsy patients that required tissue extraction, and even block histology from Project Big Brain.

Now, in my masters thesis I am focusing on using functional MRI and a novel behavioural paradigm to probe Pattern Separation outside of the Ventral Visual Stream.
