Join us for the monthly CCBBI Users Workshop!
Guest Speaker:

Postdoc working with Anastasia Yendiki

Talk Title: "How to stay on track: The need for anatomical knowledge in diffusion tractography"
Abstract: In this talk I will highlight the present limitations of diffusion-based tractography and the need for anatomical knowledge and anatomical priors to improve tractography reliability. I will present some of the tractography optimisation and validation work I did during my PhD on the auditory system, and the tractography validation and application work I am now working on in my Post Doc.
MRI Users Workshops are monthly informal gatherings for users who are interested in getting to know each other and talking science. The workshop is open to all, and students and postdocs are particularly encouraged to attend.
Workshops typically include a short presentation of work (15-25 minutes) with an extended discussion at the end.
Workshops are typically held on the third Friday of each month at 1:00pm, in the Psychology Building, Room TBD. To receive meeting details and related MRI announcements, please complete a request form and specify that you would like to be added to the CCBBI mailing list.
