Dr. Carbon-Correll’s research activity in the Center for Neurosciences focuses on the use of functional brain imaging to study mechanisms of disease in hereditary dystonia. In order to address multiple suggested mechanisms and the interaction of functional and structural brain changes, Dr. Carbon-Correll has implemented a multimodal approach with a combination of various imaging techniques. These techniques include H₂¹⁵O-PET combined with activation tasks and FDG-PET during the resting state, as well as ligand studies and MRI with diffusion tensor imaging. In addition, Dr. Carbon-Correll studies the effects of deep brain stimulation on learning in dystonia and Parkinson’s disease. To this end, she uses various motor learning tasks and network modeling to assess therapeutic effects on established learning circuitries.
