Ai Wern Chung
Ai is an American Heart Association and Children's Heart Foundation Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at the Fetal-Neonatal Neuroimaging and Developmental Science Center (FNNDSC) at Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School. Her research interests include using network theory to exploit connectomes in order to quantify organisational changes in the brain with age and pathology. At FNNDSC, she has been using these methods to study adolescent mild traumatic brain injury, and adults with congenital heart disease. With her background in engineering, she is primarily motivated to bring together neuroimaging technology and the clinic to address medical questions for societal gain.
