Characterising blood oxygenation changes in functional human brain imaging

This project aims to characterise and image the human vasculature in vivo that underlies functional brain mapping techniques, which can blur and mask the accurate mapping of human cognition. Expected outcomes include a detailed map of the blood vessel anatomy of the living human brain, and vascular models of functional brain signals in space and time.
