Zeynab Rezaee, PhD - Contract Scientist

Dr. Zeynab Rezaee is a bioinformatics scientist at NNU. She provides hardware and software engineering support and conducts data analysis and integrates different modalities of the experimental setup and data acquisition. Dr. Rezaee received her B.S. in Physics from the K.N.Toosi University of Technology in Iran. She received MSc in Medical Physics and Ph.D. in biomedical engineering from the State University of New York at Buffalo. Her research interest is in neuroimaging-guided approaches to non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) to address challenges with inter-individual variability. In her Ph.D., Dr. Rezaee focused on optimizing NIBS for the cerebellum, one of the most complex brain structures. She developed a novel pipeline for “Lobular electric field distribution during cerebellar tDCS”. She plans to continue conducting research studies of novel devices and paradigms for magnetic and electrical stimulations for the patient and non-patient populations to optimize their efficiency on neuroplasticity.
