Gizem Cetin

I have received my Bachelor’s in Neuroscience from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill where I investigated language-related white matter development in infants at high-genetic risk for autism using imaging and behavioral methods for her thesis. My current doctoral project aims to investigate the white matter connections of the “math network” in children before and after they receive schooling in order to track their math abilities in tandem with the maturation of these connections using a multimodal approach (fMRI, dMRI, qMRI, and behavioral data).
