Academic Achievements
- Published an article on the progress of MRI from a clinical assessment tool to a neuroimaging biomarker in traumatic spinal cord injury in The Lancet Neurology.
Research Experience
- Currently, Professor and Head of Spinal Cord Injury Center at the University of Zurich. The focus of previous and current research projects is to better understand how the anatomy and function of the spinal cord and brain change in neurological disorders involving the spinal cord. Other areas of interest include exploring mechanisms underlying cortical and spinal plasticity during learning.
Background
- Research interests include non-invasive neuroimaging of structural and functional changes in neurological disorders and methodological development of high-resolution MRI sequences for spinal cord and brain. The main goal is to develop neuroimaging biomarkers that are sensitive and accurate in predicting functional outcome.
