Research interests
My research focuses on elucidating metabolic and microstructural alterations underlying epilepsy using advanced neuroimaging techniques. I am particularly interested in Deuterium Metabolic Imaging (DMI) and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) to investigate cerebral metabolism, oxidative stress, and tissue composition in patients with focal epilepsy.
