OUP MRS Primer I and my co-authors, William Clarke and Adam Berrington published a guide to running an MRS study, including acquisition, processing and analysis of the data. You can buy a physical or ebook now from OUP or Amazon.

My group develops computational methods for enabling neuroimaging research. We create methods in diffusion MRI to study brain tissue microstructure and connectivity, in functional MRI to study brain activity and individual variation in brain function; and in MR spectroscopy to study brain metabolites and their changes under various experimental conditions. We also do research across scales, combining MRI and microscopy to better understand the biological processes underpinning MRI signals, and research across- species to understand commonalities and differences between human and non-human primate brains.
