DPhil Student in the group of Dr. Kyle Pattinson.


Thesis Title:

Investigations of brain mechanisms of dyspnoea (breathlessness) with functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI).


Study1: !!!CURRENTLY RECRUITING!!!

The effect of respiratory loading upon cerebral blood flow and BOLD responsiveness

My first study investigates how respiratory loading (breathing in and out against a resistance, like breathing through a thin drinking straw)
affects the cerebral blood flow response obtained with arterial spin labelling (ASL) FMRI.

I am currently recruiting participants for this study. The first session will involve breathing on a breathing system for between 2 and 3 hours
and you will receive a £30 reimbursement. If you are interested and would like to find out more, please have a look at the recruitment
poster here and send me an email to show your interest and find out more.
