My main research area is computational image analysis with an emphasis
on studying statistical models from a Bayesian perspective. My research
covers object localization and recognition, data alignment, and shape
representation, with a particular focus on neuroimaging. It is my long
term goal to enhance patient care by creating algorithms for
automatically quantifying and generalizing the information latent in
images for tasks such as disease analysis and surgical planning.
