Postdoctoral Researcher
Ben is a BioEngineering PhD student in the Raj Lab. His interests are varied, but they center around ways to predict brain function from structure. We use linear mathematical models to understand the brain’s structure-function problem, and Ben seeks to understand how different model parameters relate to health, development, and consciousness. Ben also does much of the Raj Lab data processing, which includes structural and diffusion MRI processing through pipetography, functional MRI with fMRIPrep and XCPEngine. Outside of the lab, Ben enjoys reading fantasy, science fiction and philosophy, playing competitive games, painting, and hanging out with cats.
