Studies include MRI, PET, and their fusion as applied to Parkinson’s disease, breast cancer, and retinal degeneration. We are also developing neural network algorithms for image and signal processing with applications in visual, auditory and motor functions as assessed by evoked potentials in humans and single unit recordings in animals. Finally, we are exploring micro technology chip design for drug delivery in the brain.
