    Collapse Overview
    The Abbasi Lab develops models and algorithms based on principles in statistics and machine learning to understand functions of the brain and related disorders. To discover and model the functions of population of neurons, the lab studies large-scale datasets with a wide variety of modalities such as electrophysiology, calcium imaging, electron microscopy, and gene expression. In the next step and in order to bridge our understanding of the brain to the diagnosis, Abbasi Lab builds tools to study and visualize large-scale neurological clinical datasets. The goal is to uncover the relationship between health records and disease symptoms, and help clinicians benefit from the information hidden in the data. This involves analyzing and visualizing medical images and structured and unstructured clinical documents.
