Biography
Dr Batalle is a Senior Lecturer at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience and the Centre for Developing Brain at the School of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences, contributing to both the Developing Human Connectome and AIMS-2-TRIALS projects.
Both a telecommunications engineer and a neuroscientist by training, Dr Batalle uses mathematical tools and computational models to study the emergence of brain organisation during early development and how subtle alterations in key developmental processes lead to neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism and ADHD. He is particularly interested in the use of whole-brain computational models, graph theory, signal processing and machine learning tools to characterise brain networks and find early markers associated to atypical neurodevelopmental trajectories.
Research interests
- Structural and functional brain networks
- Dynamic functional connectivity
- Graph theory and computational models
