Wellness Resources
To offer support to its staff and researchers, Partners, MGH, and several other groups have put together resources that address the challenges we may be facing in our day-to-day lives as we handle this unique situation. Here, we compile those resources & information to make it easier for you ...
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 “RF-EEG Cap”, the first-of-its-kind wearable RF head coil and the related signal processing tools, I envision a complete solution for co...

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...

New Software Improves Ability to Determine the Cause of Stroke
Determining the cause of an ischemic stroke is critical to preventing a second one and is a primary focus in the evaluation of stroke patients. But for all the importance of identifying the cause, physicians have long lacked a robust and objective means to do so. Now a team of investigators at...
Peter Caravan Promoted to Full Professor

The Secret Lives of Martinos Folk: Carol Barnstead and the Center’s cast of colorful characters
I have this theory that you need to be a character to work at the Martinos Center; you have to be a bit of an oddball, albeit in a fun, quirky kind of way. I’m not sure whether this is a prerequisite enforced during one of the hiring steps or is simply the result of some kind of self-selection pr...
