Annie G. Bryant
Hi! I’m Annie, a third-year PhD Candidate working with Dr Ben Fulcher in the Dynamics and Neural Systems Lab at The University of Sydney.
For my thesis research, I’m interested in the nuanced changes to neural dynamics that characterize a given disorder, with a particular focus on Alzheimer’s disease. I integrate multimodal neuroimaging data with highly comparative time-series analysis to better understand how Alzheimer’s disease pathology disrupts functional neural architecture, from individual cells to distributed networks of brain regions.
Before moving to Sydney, I lived in Boston while studying at Northeastern University and researching the relationship between tau pathology and vascular function under the supervision of Dr. Rachel Bennett at the MassGeneral Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease.

Outside of the lab, you can find me biking, hiking, hammocking, embroidering, roller skating, or FaceTiming with Mojo, my cat back home.
