The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) has announced the Martinos Center's Caroline Magnain as one of 17 CZI investigators— engineers, physicists, mathematicians, computer scientists, and biologists with expertise in technology development — participating in a $17 million Imaging Scientists program...
The Secret Lives of Martinos Folk: Kevin Dowling, Bagpiper in the Big City
Here is something of an unavoidable fact: If you play the Highland bagpipes you are going to draw a crowd, even if you aren’t actually looking for an audience. Just ask Kevin Dowling, a clinical research coordinator in the Brain Genomics Laboratory at the MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Ima...
Hyperpolarized Carbon-13 Imaging Is Coming to the Martinos Center
The MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging has received NIH funding to purchase a carbon-13 polarizer for translational and clinical metabolic imaging research. The instrument will be part of a new initiative in Hyperpolarized Imaging Program directed by Yi-Fen Yen, assistant professor of rad...

A New Link between Pain Widespreadness and Catastrophizing Thoughts about Pain
Molecular Imaging and the ‘Martinos Galaxy’: Jacob Hooker shows us the stars
The Martinos Center’s Jacob Hooker is standing in front of a crowded room in a gleaming building in Boston’s Seaport District. On a screen above him is an image with seemingly countless circles of different colors and sizes. Big green ones. Small blue ones. And so on. He refers to the image as...
Matthew Rosen
Dr. Matt Rosen is a physicist, tool-builder and inventor whose research bridges the spectrum from fundamental physics to applied bioimaging work in the field of MRI. He established the Low-Field MRI and Hyperpolarized Media Laboratory at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging to ...
Nutrition and Brain Growth in the Developing World
The aging pickup truck bounces along a dirt road somewhere outside Bissora, one of the larger towns in the Oio region of the West African nation of Guinea-Bissau. The road, a major thoroughfare in the region, is pocked with holes. The rest of the year these would be deep and dusty. But it’s July ...
Treating Aneurysm with MR Coagulation
A team of investigators in the MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, in collaboration with medical device company Robin Medical, has developed a new method that could help to address cerebral aneurysm while adding therapeutic capabilities to magnetic resonance imaging. Cerebral aneurysm,...
Daphne Holt Receives MGH Research Scholars Award
The Martinos Center's Daphne Holt is among the distinguished investigators in the 2018 Class of MGH Research Scholars. She received the honor for her project "Altered neural mechanisms of personal space in schizophrenia: a novel biomarker of negative symptoms and treatment target." Schizophren...
Matt Rosen and Colleagues’ Journey Through the Secret Life of Plants
In the waning months of 1979, the legendary Motown artist Stevie Wonder released an album called Stevie Wonder’s 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 ...
‘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...
Optics Technologies Could Advance Neuromonitoring During Heart Surgery
A team of researchers at the MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging has reported an innovative light-based technique that could help reduce the incidence of neurological injury during aortic arch replacement and other cardiac surgeries. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is a techn...
‘Martinnovate’ Seminar Series Boosts Innovation at Martinos
The Martinos Center has always been a hotbed of entrepreneurship. Over the years, innumerable investigators and staff have launched companies seeking to commercialize products they have developed as part of their research. A new seminar series in the center aims to support this entrepreneuria...
Ken Kwong and the Introduction of Noninvasive fMRI
In the early months of 1992 the neuroscience community was flush with excitement.
