About

The Computational Connectomics (CoCo) Laboratory is a part of the Department of Radiology at Weill Cornell Medicine in New York, NY and the Computational Biology and Statistics and Data Science Departments at Cornell University. Our lab, located on Cornell's main campus in Ithaca, NY, focuses on using quantitative methods applied to MRI-based measures of brain anatomy and physiology to understand the mysteries of the human brain. One major interest of our lab is in uncovering connectivity network-based mechanisms of impairment and recovery after neurological injury or disease, including traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis and stroke. If we can understand brain-behavior relationships, we may be able to develop accurate diagnostics, prognostics and individualized therapeutics that can boost recovery after neurological disease or injury.

Interested in joining the lab?

Come work with us! We have positions available for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Please email a CV and cover letter describing your research interests to amk2012@med.cornell.edu
