Dr. Nabin Koirala recently joined the Computational Neuroimaging Laboratories in NKI’s C-BIN. He is also the director of the Brain Imaging Research Core (BIRC) at UConn. Prior to joining UConn, he was a research faculty member at the Yale School of Medicine, where he continues to maintain an affiliation. He earned his PhD from Johannes Gutenberg University in Germany, and in 2019 he moved to the USA for postdoctoral research at Haskins Laboratories.
RESEARCH: Network-level neural perturbations are crucial for understanding disruptions in brain function linked to both neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. Dr. Koirala’s research focuses on investigating these neural alterations across the lifespan, particularly in relation to speech, language, hearing, and movement disorders. Over the years, he has explored how large-scale network approaches can quantify and analyze these alterations, providing a comprehensive understanding of their impact on brain function. Additionally, he has worked on potential treatment options, with a focus on non-invasive brain stimulation techniques such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), High-Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS), and neurofeedback-based interventions, all aimed at restoring network integrity and improving behavioral and clinical outcomes.
