Ryan Michael Nillo

Research Assistant

+1 415 514-8147

Ryan is a research assistant who graduated from Carleton College. He is interested in the physical brain changes that occur in patients with neurodegenerative disease and psychiatric disorders (i.e. differences in cortical thickness/volume, diffusion, and functional activity). While comparatively less experienced in this aspect of research, Ryan is also interested in investigating the genetic background of neurological diseases. Outside of the lab, Ryan is a gamer and martial artist.
