His portfolio includes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). His background is in physics, biophysics, and physiology, and he has held academic positions at Oxford University (Biochemistry Department), Brookhaven National Laboratories (Biology Department), the University of Pennsylvania (Biochemistry/Biophysics Department) and the Intramural Program at the National Institutes of Health (NIAAA and NIMH). His early research focused on the use of magnetic resonance techniques to study the structure and function of enzymes and membranes. However, for the last twenty years his research focused on the development of novel MRI and MRS approaches that can be used to quantititate and image physiological function (e.g., oxygen consumption and blood flow) in live animals and humans.
