Bruce Rosen, M.D., Ph.D., is Director of the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital and Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School, as well as Professor of Health Sciences and Technology at Harvard-MIT. A pioneer in functional neuroimaging, Dr. Rosen has spent more than three decades developing and applying advanced MRI and related technologies to better understand how the brain worksand how it changes in disease.

His research has led to many of the imaging tools used today to study brain function, blood flow, and metabolism, enabling scientists and clinicians around the world to investigate conditions such as stroke, dementia, brain tumors, and neurological and psychiatric disorders. More recently, his work has focused on integrating MRI with other imaging methodssuch as PET, MEG, and optical imagingto create a more complete picture of brain activity and its underlying biology.

Dr. Rosen has led several large, multi-institutional research initiatives, including the NIH Human Connectome Project and the Center for Functional Neuroimaging Technologies. A Fellow of the National Academy of Medicine and recipient of major honors from organizations including the Radiological Society of North America and the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, he continues to shape the field of brain imaging through both scientific innovation and mentorship.
