The Mass General Research Institute is made up of numerous centers, labs and researchers within the Massachusetts General Hospital. We are incredibly grateful to be a part of such a large community of innovative scientists.
One of our centers, the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, recently highlighted several of their researchers to support women in science, and we thought we would spread the love!
Read on to get to know a few of the inspiring women in science at the
Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging.
Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
Meet Judit! Born and raised in Eger, Hungary, Judit delivers project management support for the Martinos Center including development and documentation of project plans & timelines in partnership & collaboration with many key groups, steering committees, and leaders!
Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
Meet Jennifer! She is currently completing a joint #research and clinical fellowship at the Massachusetts General Hospital. Jennifer spends one day/week at the Psychology Assessment Center conducting neuropsychological assessments with patients experiencing cognitive difficulties due to a variety of etiologies, including Alzheimer’s disease, frontal temporal dementia, multiple sclerosis, stroke, and brain injury.
Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
Meet Giorgia! She is a PhD Candidate in the Harvard-MIT HST program who uses a multimodal approach linking chemical tracing and ps-oct to diffusion MRI to validate tractography and assess its accuracy in mapping critical connections of the brain.
Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
Meet Emma! Once upon a time, Emma wanted to be an aquatic veterinarian! Today, she is a research technician in the Laboratory for Computational Neuroimaging (LCN) at the Martinos Center.
Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
Meet Olivia! She’s working on improving the specificity of functional MRI (fMRI) by quantifying the effect of vascular geometry in the brain on fMRI signals. Olivia scans people’s brains at maximum resolution to investigate their signals as a function of their head orientation.
Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
Meet Andrea! Born and raised in Mexico City, Andrea obtained her MD degree from the UNAM Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México and is currently enrolled at the UMCG – Universitair Medisch Centrum Groningen for postgraduate studies. She is a visiting Ph.D. student at the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging Massachusetts General Hospital to perform research in the field of cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) while also completing a program to obtain registration as an Epidemiologist with the Dutch Epidemiology Society.
About the Mass General Research Institute
Research at Massachusetts General Hospital is interwoven through more than 30 different departments, centers and institutes. Our research includes fundamental, lab-based science; clinical trials to test new drugs, devices and diagnostic tools; and community and population-based research to improve health outcomes across populations and eliminate disparities in care.
