Tinaz Lab

We investigate the brain changes in movement disorders - especially Parkinson's disease - using imaging tools such as magnetic resonance imaging, dopamine transporter scans, and positron emission tomography.

We are particularly interested in investigating the brain basis of motor, behavioral, and cognitive symptoms, as well as the plasticity changes in response to mental training and physical exercise in Parkinson's disease.

Our affiliated centers and institutions include:

• Yale Magnetic Resonance Research Center (MRRC)
• Yale PET Center
• Yale Clinical Neuroscience Imaging Center (CNIC)
• Yale Center for Clinical Investigation
