I am interested in the large-scale organization of the human cortex: why human brain patterns in this particular way (highly functional specialize modules) and how this develops. I am working with Dr. Saygin to explore whether adult-like architectures already in neonates’ brains? If so how they ‘shaped’ or ‘modified’ by environment and experience? Whether different functional modules interact in different ways throughout the development? I also very looking forward to linking underlying structures in the early stages to the cognition like high-level vision, language, etc.
