A new imaging probe that could help to advance therapies for Alzheimer’s disease draws its inspiration from an unlikely source. Research suggests that Alzheimer’s is closely associated with increased levels of ‘reactive oxygen species’ (ROS) in the brain, but actual, in vivo evidence of this h...

Understanding Eye-contact Avoidance in People With Autism
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often have difficulty looking others in the eyes. This is typically interpreted as a sign of social and personal indifference, but self-reports from people with autism suggests otherwise. Many say that looking others in the eye is uncomfortable or s...
Understanding the Patient-Clinician Relationship with ‘Hyperscanning’ fMRI
The quality of the patient-clinician relationship is widely held to impact a patient’s response to treatment. Exactly how, though, has long remained a mystery. In a study reported in October 2020, Martinos Center researchers began to explore the questions of which parts of the brain and which typ...
Q&A: Susan Whitfield-Gabrieli on Managing Anxiety and Depression with Mindfulness-Based fMRI Neurofeedback
In a paper recently published in Molecular Psychiatry, Martinos affiliated faculty member Susan Whitfield-Gabrieli and colleagues describe a mindfulness-based fMRI neurofeedback approach they have developed and highlight its potential in treating adolescents with a history of anxiety and depressi...

Ona Wu
The research goals of Dr. Wu's group are to improve the diagnosis, prognosis and management of patients with brain injury by quantifying and monitoring injury or recovery on an individual patient basis. The group focuses particularly on stroke, cardiac arrest and traumatic brain injury. Predictin...
Heidi Jacobs
The Jacobs Lab aims to detect the earliest brain changes that contribute to cognitive decline and behavioral changes associated with the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease. Our focus is on neuroimaging method development, biomarker evaluation and testing new preventive interventions targeting...
‘Pioneer Campfires’ Offer Stories of the Early Days of fMRI
Imagine sitting by a campfire, listening to trailblazers and other witnesses to key moments in the history of MRI as they casually recount the untold stories behind seminal papers or inventions. Attendees of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) 2019 Annual Meeting ...
Crowds Cure Cancer at RSNA 2017
Can crowdsourcing provide us with a cure for cancer? We hope to find out. Join us in an experiment at the RSNA annual meeting next week, where just a few minutes of your time could move us closer to this ever-elusive goal. Advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning have broad pot...
Magnetoencephalography Aids Diagnosis and Treatment of Epilepsy, Other Disorders
Originally used only for research purposes, magnetoencephalography (MEG) has been introduced into clinical care in recent decades. With applications in epilepsy already benefiting from its use, and still others on the horizon, the technique is helping to advance diagnosis and treatment for a rang...
