Dr. Korb is a neuroscientist, author, speaker, and scientific consultant. Do you need help with data analysis, study design, or even scientific communication? Dr. Korb has a wealth of experience in all stages of the scientific process from design and implementation of experiments to analysis and publication. For example, Dr. Korb helped Parexel International design and execute its first ever internally funded fMRI study. He also assisted them with implementing a large fMRI study for an early phase clinical trial. He has analyzed data for several biotech companies, and helped them meet their research goals. His research expertise includes data analysis, fMRI study design and operation, as well as quantitative EEG and EEG source localization.
