Research lab
Current projects
The NeuroResonanceLab at the Rochester Institute of Technology is a cross-disciplinary laboratory that works at the intersection of signal processing, statistics and artificial intelligence to understand brain processes through recordings (scalp EEG, intracranial EEG and fNIRS).
The long-term questions we aim behind these projects are explained more on our research page.
Current projects
-

Diet and brain network dynamics: a dual-modality EEG-fNIRS study
How omega-3 and vitamin C supplementation modulate non-linear cross-frequency coupling and neurovascular coupling, measured with concurrent EEG and fNIRS
-
Active
Causal cross-frequency models of electro-hemodynamic activity
Statistical models that link the frequency bands of EEG to the slower hemodynamic response, and test the direction of that influence
-
Active
Instantaneous high-dimensional connectivity estimation
Estimation of connectivity models in soft real-time under constrainer hardware to facilitate network-based approaches on clinical environments
Join the lab
I’m recruiting PhD students, and inside RIT, undergraduate research students. I appreciate a background in neuroscience, but curiosity, care with mathematical models, and some programming (Python, R or similar) is more important to me.
Undergraduate students
We’re looking for students to work on our projects on fall & summer 2027, or with their senior/capstone project. Depending on the case, we may find a common ground on a project that interesting to you. However, because of my research line, I’ll expect you to be enthusiastic on more in-depth mathematical/AI models to understand neuroscience phenomena.
PhD students
I’m recruiting students through the Ph.D. in computing and information sciences. Applications are due January 15, but I may prioritize students in my lab that have contacted me before applying.
How to contact me
Email mapcgns@rit.edu with the subject “Prospective student” and include your resume, a few sentences on which project or question interests you, and why. Depending on the time of the year, I may not be able to answer every emails.
