Anderson Winkler is a Ph.D. student in the Neurophysics Marie Curie Initial Training Network, linked with GlaxoSmithKline and Maastricht University. He is based at Oxford University's FMRIB lab under the joint supervision of Tom Nichols and Steve Smith (Oxford). Anderson graduated in Medicine at the Brazil Universidade Federal do Paraná in 2005, and obtained a MS in Biomedical Engineering at the Imaging and Electronic Instrumentation Laboratory, Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná in 2007, under the supervision of Prof. Humberto Gamba. Slightly out of order, he started a postdoc with Dr. David Glahn at the Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, where he worked applying and developing methods for neuroimaging. At Yale he worked with a range of data types and techniques, including structural and functional MRI, both using parametric and non-parametric methods, focused on modelling genetic variability. |
