description: " David holds a degree in Psychology from the University of the Basque Country (UPV). Additionally, he is a certified technician in diagnostic imaging and nuclear medicine (Inmakulada Tolosa). With 12 years of experience as a laboratory technician at the Basque Center on Cognition, Brain, and Language (BCBL), he serves as the MRI Coordinator at BCBL. During his master’s thesis (Universitat de Valencia), he worked extensively on converting a multimodal dataset from a BCBL project into BIDS format. This has involved magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data, electroencephalography (EEG) data, neuropsychological questionnaires, and medical information collected over multiple time points and across three different treatment groups. \\ Ryland received his Bachelor's degree in Computer and Information Sciences from the University of Oregon in 2018. He then worked as a Senior Research Technician in the Dosenbach and Greene Labs at Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine. At WUSM, Ryland helped develop FIRMM (a software that tracks motion in real-time during functional MRI scans), maintained and improved scripts to analyze resting state functional MRI data, and taught programming skills to other lab members. He is currently completing his Master’s degree in the Cognitive Neuroscience of Language and working as a research assistant at the BCBL. His main focus is on the proper and efficient use of computing resources in fMRI data analysis. To this end, he works on improving methodologies for MRI data collection, storage, and analysis and on teaching other researchers about these best practices."
