Olfactory health â how well we are able to smell â is a reliable marker of the health of the brain, but the âsmell identification testsâ commonly used in studies of olfactory health do not offer a complete picture of what is happening. Now, using a novel PET radiotracer called Neuroflux, a team o...

Xin Yu
Xin Yu studied Neuroscience and Biophysics at New York University, USA. During his Ph.D. training in Dan Turnbullâs lab, he implemented Manganese-enhanced MRI to study the auditory midbrain plasticity and mid-hindbrain development. Meanwhile, he was trained by Dan Sanes to target the inferior col...
Mesoscale Brain Mapping: Bridging Scales and Modalities in Neuroimaging
Recent advances both in the MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging and elsewhere are driving the convergence of microscopic- and macroscopic-scale study of the brain for human translational neuroscience, by developing and applying tools to study the spatial distribution and temporal orchestra...
The First In Vivo Imaging Agent for Electrical Signaling in the Heart
Reliable and accurate functioning of the heart is vital for health and well-being. According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular disease contributes to one third of all deaths worldwide. Unfortunately, currently used diagnostic methods are insufficient for early detection of the risk...
Estimating Tumor Boundaries in Cancer Surgery With Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, with an estimated 1,762,450 new cases diagnosed and 606,880 deaths in 2019 alone. While important advances have been made in the development of treatments for cancer, including surgery, a number of challenges remain. Not least: sur...
Matt Rosen and Colleaguesâ Journey Through the Secret Life of Plants
In the waning months of 1979, the legendary Motown artist Stevie Wonder released an album called Stevie Wonderâs Journey Through "The Secret Life of Plants," the soundtrack to the documentary film The Secret Life of Plants. Equal parts frustrating and strangely compelling, and notably using some ...
Yi-Fen Yen
Over the past two decades, Dr. Yen has devoted herself to the development of advanced MRI techniques, for hyperpolarized metabolic imaging, cancer imaging and functional imaging in clinical and pre-clinical research. She is an MR physicist with >100 publications in peer-reviewed scientific jou...
Symposium to Explore ‘Mesoscaleâ Imaging of the Human Brain
Registration is open for âMesoscale Brain Mapping: Bridging Scales and Modalities in Neuroimaging,â a one-day symposium bringing together researchers using a range of imaging techniques to study brain function at the intersection of the micro- and macro- scales. The in-person event will be he...
‘It’s All in the Eyes’: The role of the amygdala in the experience and perception of fear
Researchers have long believed that the amygdala, an almond-shaped structure in the brain, is central to the experience and perception of fear. Studies initiated in the 1990s of a patient with a rare condition affecting the amygdala initially seemed to support this conclusion. However, as the MGH...
Lucia Navarro de Lara
My research is focused on elucidating the mechanisms of network-level brain responses to non-invasive brain stimulation methods. Based on the development of the âRF-EEG Capâ, the first-of-its-kind wearable RF head coil and the related signal processing tools, I envision a complete solution for co...

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...
Deep Learning Offers Quantitative Means of Monitoring Disease Progression in Retinopathy of Prematurity
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is an eye disorder affecting roughly two-thirds of premature infants weighing less than 250 g at birth and one of the leading causes of childhood blindness worldwide. Historically, clinical diagnosis of ROP has been subjective, resulting in considerable variabilit...
