Douglas Greve, PhD, has a passion for delivering cutting-edge tools to the neuroscience community. He joined the FreeSurfer team 20 years ago and has been developing neuroimaging software ever since. His career has offered him an exciting mixture of engineering, physics, software development and neuroscience. He understands the biophysics of many brain imaging modalities (e.g., MRI structural, fMRI, DTI, MRS, as well as PET). He has especially enjoyed collaborating with experts from neurology, psychiatry and psychology — they know what tools they need to study their diseases, and he knows how to realize those tools through technology.
Education
