The Radiochemistry Team, and Everything That Doesn’t Go Wrong
PET-MR, a multimodality imaging technique that pairs the whole-body functional imaging of positron emission tomography (PET) with the local anatomic detail and morphological information of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, shows great potential for clinical application. We still don’t know exactly...

Caroline Magnain Joins $17 Million Initiative to Bring More Optical Imaging Expertise to Biomedical Research
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 MEG Celebration Photo Gallery
On Friday, Nov. 30, the Martinos Center celebrated two landmark events for its MEG program: MEG Core director Matti Hämäläinen's promotion to full professor of radiology at Harvard Medical School and the renaming of the Center's MEG facility in honor of David Cohen, the Martinos faculty member an...
Martinos Center Benefactors Honored by the Greek Orthodox Church
Many biomedical research centers have been named in honor of the donors who, through their generous support, are helping to advance work done in the particular areas of investigation. We know these donors’ names, and associate them with the research the centers produce. Less familiar to us, thoug...
The Center’s Jacob Hooker Joins the Lurie Center for Autism as Scientific Director
Redeployment During the COVID-19 Pandemic
On Monday, April 6, as MGH prepared for the expected surge in COVID-19 patients, the hospital's leadership announced the likely redeployment of significant numbers of non-clinical workers. MGH had now entered the "all hands on deck" phase of the pandemic, where the need for additional support sta...

The Nguyen lab focuses on the development and clinical application of novel imaging techniques to characterize the cardiovascular system including MRI, optical, and PET. Our primary research interests fall into four general areas: (1) bio- inspired design for heart assisted devices (Science Robot...
Artificial Intelligence Improves Treatment Monitoring in Patients with Glioma
This year, some 78,000 primary brain and other central nervous system (CNS) cancers will be diagnosed in the US alone. Researchers are actively developing new therapies for glioma, the most common type of primary brain tumor, but challenges remain in assessing whether patients are responding to t...
Ona Wu
The research goals of Dr. Wu's group are to improve the diagnosis, prognosis and management of patients with brain injury by quantifying and monitoring injury or recovery on an individual patient basis. The group focuses particularly on stroke, cardiac arrest and traumatic brain injury. Predictin...
Randy Gollub Named Chair-Elect of OHBM, Floats Idea of Ska Band’s Return
The Martinos Center’s Randy Gollub has been elected to be the next Chair of the Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM), an international society launched by Center researchers a quarter century ago. She is delighted to be able to step into the role: not least because of the many “resonanc...
The (Totally True) Legend of Thomas Witzel and the Ultrahigh-field MRI Quench
Sometimes we get the hero we need. In the summer of 2017, the 7T MRI scanner at the MGH Martinos Center suffered a quench: a sudden loss of superconductivity resulting in a complete loss of the scanner’s magnetic field. In short, it broke. Without a magnetic field, the instrument was inoperabl...
