About the speaker: 

Last summer, she graduated from the School of Medicine at Zagreb
University with an MD diploma. In November 2007, she commenced her PhD
research concerning fetal brain imaging (volumetric, cortical thickness
and gyrification index studies).  The aim of her PhD thesis is to study
and to enhance the histological, neurobiological and MRI processing
methods and to use them in diagnostic purposes. She works under the
supervision of Prof. Kostovic (CIBR); who is one of Dr. Alan Evans
collaborators and is currently on a research visit at Alan Evans lab.
