Research Abstract
Huntingtons disease, Parkinsons disease, and Friedreich ataxia are debilitating and progressive neurodegenerative disorders that result from cell death within different components of a common brain system. Using magnetic resonance imaging and advanced statistical techniques, I will investigate functional and structural changes within this system, providing a clearer picture of the brain network changes that underlie the expression of these disorders.
