Assistant Professor Thomas Yeo with NUS Electrical and Computer Engineering received the Singapore Neuroscience Association Young Neuroscientist Award for his contributions to neuroscience research. His group develops machine learning algorithms to automatically generate scientific discoveries from large-scale datasets comprising thousands of subjects with brain magnetic resonance imaging, behavioural, genetic and other physiological measures.
Asst Prof Yeo’s goal is to discover fundamental principles of brain network organisation, how brain networks are organised to support cognition and how brain networks are disrupted in mental disorders.
