Ken Kwong and the Introduction of Noninvasive fMRI
In the early months of 1992 the neuroscience community was flush with excitement. Jack Belliveau, a graduate student with the MGH-NMR Center (now the MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging), had recently published in Science his pioneering work with functional MRI, and the possibilities of th...
Martinos Giving
The Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging is an outstanding research center in part because of the consistent support of foundations, industry, faculty, staff, and friends. Over the years, the Center and its faculty have benefited from the gifts of those that support our vision t...
The Center’s Susie Huang Joins Advocacy Efforts on Capitol Hill
Susie Huang, MD, PhD, Neuroradiologist and staff at the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging recently spent a few days in Washington, DC, where she participated in spring advocacy events for the Academy of Radiology Research. She talked with us about the experience: "As a part of the America...
Celebrating 20 Years of Ultrahigh-field Imaging at the Martinos Center
Last month, the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging hosted a special symposium celebrating the 20th anniversary of 7T MRI at MGH. The symposium featured talks and stories and other reminiscences from many of the creators and earliest users of the Center's first-of-its-kind ult...
Risk, Resiliency in Aging Brain Focus of $33 Million Grant
A large study that investigates just what keeps our brains sharp as we age and what contributes to cognitive decline has been launched by Martinos Center researchers in collaboration with colleagues from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, the University of Minnesota Medical Sc...
‘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 ...
Robert Savoy
Dr. Savoy received his academic training in applied mathematics at MIT (BS 1971; MS 1975) and experimental psychology at Harvard University (PhD 1980). This period included 10 years of work at Polaroid Corporation’s Vision Research Laboratory, after which he joined the newly formed Rowland Instit...
Peter Caravan Promoted to Full Professor

The Year in Review: 2019
The MGH Martinos Center closed out the decade with yet another stellar year. In 2019, Center investigators reported advances in a range of areas – from technology development to basic science research and a host of clinical applications – and generally showed surprising / not-in-the-least-bit-su...
Center for Mesoscale Mapping
Brain science tools have advanced in several distinct directions. Advanced tools in molecular biology now allow neuroscientists to study distinct patterns of gene expression in individual neural cells, leading to the potential for a comprehensive atlas of cell types. In parallel, tools that allow...
The Martinos Center and the Institute for Innovation in Imaging Support Clinical Trial of Drug for Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Researchers from the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, the Martinos Center, and the Institute for Innovation in Imaging (i3) at Massachusetts General Hospital recently completed a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of bexotegrast (PLN-74809), a drug develo...
The Center’s Regan Butterfield on Her New Role with SNMMI
Last year, the Martinos Center’s Regan Butterfield was asked to serve as the Education co-chair for the Clinical Trials Network (CTN) for the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI). In a recent conversation, Butterfield, a research nuclear medicine technologist in the Center, t...
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...
Moving Beyond Biopsy for Liver Fibrosis
Chronic liver disease is a growing health concern in the U.S. and around the world, with links to alcoholism, diabetes and even obesity. One of the early manifestations of the disease is fibrosis, an excessive buildup of scar tissue that results from repeated injury to the liver. While its effect...
