Toomas Erik Anijärv
PhD student @ Clinical Memory Research Unit, Lund University
I’m a PhD student in neuroimaging and neurodegenerative diseases at the Clinical Memory Research Unit in Lund University
. I have a background in biomedical engineering and hold a Master’s degree in Medical Technology and Physics from Tallinn University of Technology
.
My PhD research focuses on uncovering early functional and microstructural brain changes in Alzheimer’s disease using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET). I’m particularly interested in applying diverse MRI contrasts, such as functional, diffusion, and magnetic susceptibility based sequences, to study brain pathology. I’m also interested in electroencephalography (EEG) as a biomarker for depression and aging. ![]()
