I have joined the Department
of Statistics at the University of
Michigan as PhD student.

August 4, 2016
A preprint I authored along
with Mike Angstadt and
Chandra Sripada went live on
arXiv earlier today. It offers some

this morning. For attendees, slides
are available online at this
github repository.
April 27, 2016
I'll be presenting a poster at an internal
conference that reflects our work
recently published in JAMA Psychiatry.
The poster is available online.
April 13, 2016
In a paper that just became available online at
JAMA Psychiatry, I, along with colleagues,
investigate how growth charting of the
brain's developing functional architecture
may be predictive of problems with sustained
attention. The article is accompanied by an
excellent editorial by Dr. Philip Shaw.
May 27, 2015
I will be presenting a poster that encompasses
much of our group's recent work in attention
performance and ADHD at the 26th Annual
Albert J. Silverman conference in Ann Arbor.
February 1, 2015
I've recently joined Robert Welsh's team
on a study investigating biomarkers of ALS
where I'll be contributing machine learning
and data analysis skills. I'm excited to begin
work toward advancing understanding of
this very challenging disease.

first-authored publication went
live today at the Journal of Neuroscience!

October 9th, 2014
I presented a poster at the University of Michigan MCubed Symposium.
I was fortunate to enjoy engaging conversations with many attendees from
a wide variety of disciplines. It seems some of this spirited conversation was captured by a School of Engineering Photographer and posted to Facebook!

Our PNAS paper exploring maturational lag in ADHD has gone live today.
There has already been some coverage in popular press,
which I have collected in a bitly bundle.
September 9th, 2014
This week (September 9th - 13th) I am at the Resting State / Brain Connectivity Conference.
I am presenting this poster (click to view online). It utilizes joint ICA and identifies cross-modal
(functional connectome, gray matter, white matter) maturational lag in ADHD. During its
presentation, I discussed two papers, one accepted, and one under review (I also discussed its supplement).
