Jesse Gomez is an Assistant Professor at Princeton University's Princeton Neuroscience Institute. His research focuses on understanding the development of the human brain using multimodal approaches including functional MRI (fMRI), quantitative MRI (qMRI), and diffusion-weighted MRI (dMRI). His work examines how childhood experience shapes neural development and what happens when this development diverges in conditions like dyslexia, autism, or prosopagnosia.
Research interests include:
- Cognitive neuroscience of brain development
- Experience-dependent plasticity in visual cortex organization
- Multimodal neuroimaging approaches
- Developmental trajectories in typical and atypical populations
His publications demonstrate a consistent focus on visual system development, with recent work examining eccentricity gradients in visual cortex, cortical recycling during childhood, and cerebellar influences on cortical development in autism. The research employs advanced neuroimaging techniques to map structural and functional changes across development.
Dr. Gomez leads the Brain Development Lab and advises graduate students including Priscilla Louis. His work integrates behavioral observations with translational techniques using postmortem tissue and spectroscopy to bridge brain development with cognitive function.
