The Raj Lab conducts cutting-edge neuroscience research in the growing field of network neuroscience. We focus on developing mathematical and computational models that use the brain’s structural connectivity to predict the development of brain diseases.
Proud to share that the Raj Lab attended UCSF's 22nd Annual Imaging Symposium last Thursday. We presented our latest research and had great discussions with the imaging community.

Congratulations to Robin Sandell for winning the award for best oral presentation!

Selective vulnerability and resilience to Alzheimer's disease tauopathy as a function of genes and the connectome
Anand et al. show that Alzheimer's disease risk genes confer vulnerability or resilience to tau pathology through both network-dependent and independent me

In our lab, we model how Alzheimer’s spreads through brain networks and genes. See how it works: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7NF...

Ashish and @robinsandell.bsky.social were honored to attend the International Symposium of Biomedical Imaging (ISBI) this week in Houston, TX. Ashish presented a keynote, and both presented posters on some of our labs recent work. Wonderful to connect with so many fellow researchers!

Congratulations to Ben Sipes @itsbendetermined.bsky.social on his publication of "Integrative, segregative, and degenerate harmonics of the structural connectome" in Communications Biology! Read the article below: www.nature.com/articles/s42...
Integrative, segregative, and degenerate harmonics of the structural connectome - Communications Biology
An integration-segregation axis in the brain is proposed based on patterns in structural connectivity. This axis offers insights into individual uniqueness, the brain’s ability to change, and relation...
