Dr Sila Genc is a Clinical Scientist Fellow generously funded by the Good Friday Appeal.

She is a brain imaging researcher and biomedical engineer focused on developing and applying advanced brain mapping techniques to characterise the developing brain.

Her research integrates diffusion MRI and computational modelling to uncover microstructural changes across the lifespan, and how these developmental patterns deviate in neurological disorders such as epilepsy.

Dr Genc is leading projects that aim to bridge imaging science with clinical neurology to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.
