Analyzing variability of working memory and reward processing in children with and without ADHD using fMRI data

The focus of our project was to gain experience using neuroimaging tools to preprocess, analyze, and visualize functional MRI data. We aimed to explore differential variability in brain connectivity among children with and without ADHD. Project reports are incorporated on the BHS website.

Effects of Sleepiness on Resting-State Connectivity

Can functional connectivity predict sleep deprivation? This project aims to explore neuroimaging data organization to build a workflow from the acquisition of an open dataset to the visualization of brain connectivity. The pipeline will be detailed and carried out for one subject, using resting state fMRI to compare the result between normal sleep and sleep deprivation (less than 3 hours of sleep the previous night).

rs-fMRI Workflow from Preprocessing to Machine Learning Classification

Can functional connectivity predict sensory deprivation? This project 1. explores neuroimaging data organization and preprocessing using open science tools and 2. uses a predictive model to classify whether a participant is hearing or not. For better visualization, the most contributing coefficients in the classifier are displayed on the brain.

Diffusion MRI- From raw data to mapping brain connectomes.

The focus of this project was to combine, use and present a set of tools to organize, preprocess, analyze and visualize diffusion MRI data. The overarching goal is to investigate the consequences of cortical blindness on structural connectivity using diffusion MRI.

Does rs-fMRI preprocessing matter for prediction performance in machine learning?

Machine learning models are often used to analyze fMRI data, whether it be a simple classification or regression problem or something more complex. While the focus of a study is often centered on the model architecture, data preprocessing also plays a vital role in a model’s success. This project will explore the effect that various preprocessing options may have on the prediction performance of a machine learning model for age prediction using resting state fMRI.

Combine EEG/MRI/Behavioral data-sets to learn more about Music/Auditory system

In this project I aim to combine data from different modalities (fMRI, EEG, and behavioral) to understand more about sound and music processing. My main focus in this project was to try to reproduce some of the results from a published paper starting form raw data.
