Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Clint Kilts studies the relationship between brain structure and cognitive function, particularly focusing on white matter integrity and its impact on cognitive flexibility. His research utilizes advanced imaging techniques, including SHIFT MRI, to investigate these connections. Kilts' work has explored age-related effects on white matter structure, as well as its role in conditions such as multiple sclerosis and opioid use disorder. He also investigates the functional links between myelination, connectome structure, and cognitive processes like information processing speed and perceived rejection. Kilts collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Tatiana Wolfe, A.C.W. Pike, Maegan Calvert, and Laura B. Dunn, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. His research has been supported by grants and has resulted in 41 publications, with an h-index of 12 and over 800 citations.
