Miss Anu Chandra
Anu Chandra hold an undergraduate degree in Biomedical Engineering from University of Calicut, India (2010). After graduating, She worked as an assistant lecturer, teaching Biomaterials in Model Engineering College, under Cochin University, India. She completed her masters in MSc Biomedical Engineering from University of Dundee in the year 2012. She got an opportunity to work with Prof. Sandy Cochran on the project “Sonotweezers”, testing and characterising the crossed electrode arrays for ultrasonic particle manipulation, during her masters.
Anu completed her Masters by research, 2015 under the guidance and supervision of Dr. Christine Demore and Dr. Graeme McLeod. The funding for the research study was provided by the Regional Anaesthesia – UK (RA-UK). The research focussed on using micro-ultrasound to investigate the possibility for nerve damage caused by inappropriate positioning of the anaesthetic needles during ultrasound guided regional anaesthesia.
Currently She is doing her final year of PhD under the supervision and guidance of Dr. Christine Demore, Dr. Graeme McLeod, Prof. george Corner and Prof. Zhihong Huang. The research study is funded by the National Institute of Academic Anaesthesia (NIAA) [2015-2018]. The research study mainly focuses on improving the visualisation techniques of region of interest and the surrounding structures for regional anaesthesia and epidurals, which can then increase the efficacy of the procedure performed.
Professor Christian Schwarzbauer
I enjoy working at the interface of multiple disciplines, such as physics, mathematics, neurobiology, and cognitive neuroscience, as this provides an excellent platform to translate cutting-edge imaging methods research into novel clinical applications. I am particularly interested in the development and optimisation of quantitative neuroimaging methods and their applications to study normal cognitive function, impaired consciousness, dementia, normal ageing, stroke and depression. My current research activities include: (i) functional MRI and PET in disorders of consciousness (e.g. coma, vegetative state, minimally conscious state); (ii) functional and structural MRI in stroke; (iii) functional connectivity MRI in depression; (iv) microvascular MRI and cerebrovascular reactivity mapping in normal ageing and dementia.
