Jae Won Song
Dr. Jae Song was a Research Fellow in our Center from 2011-2012. She was investigating the connectivity of developing human fetal, neonatal, and toddler brains using high-resolution diffusion imaging and tractography. She was also interested in characterizing the hemispheric asymmetry of white matter tracts in the developing fetal and neonatal human brains. Jae is currently performing her Radiology resindency at Drexel University.
Natsuko Mori
