=== Richard M. Leahy, PhD ===
<<HTML(<div   style="float: right; clear: left; margin-left: 15px; margin-right:  5px;"><img   src="/brainstorm/AboutUs?action=AttachFile&amp;do=get&amp;target=richardleahy.jpg" width=130 height=130/></div>)>>

''Signal & Image Processing Institute, Director<<BR>>University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA USA''

Dr. Leahy's research interests lie in the application of signal and  image processing theory to the formation and analysis of biomedical  images. His research group is currently involved in the development and  analysis of computational methods for formation of positron emission  tomography (PET) images with applications in clinical oncology and gene  expression imaging in small animals.

For the past 15 years, Dr. Leahy  has been involved in the development of inverse method for  spatio-temporal imaging of neural activity from measurements of  magnetoencephalographic (MEG) and electroencephalographic (EEG) data.

Dr.  Leahy has also had a long research interest in the analysis of  anatomical imagery, and specifically in the automated segmentation and  labelling of neuroanatomical images and in extracting surface  representations of the cerebral cortex from volumetric data. His work  is supported by the National Cancer Institute, the National Institute of  Mental Health and the National Center for Research Resources.

=== John C. Mosher, PhD ===

Dr. Mosher received his Bachelors in Electrical Engineering  with Highest Honors from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1983.  From 1981 - 1982 he was an exchange scholar student with the  Eidgenoessische Technische Hochschule Zuerich, Switzerland. From 1979 -  1983 he was also a Cooperative Education student with Hughes Aircraft  Company in Fullerton, California. From 1983 - 1993, he worked at TRW in  Los Angeles, California, as a scientist and senior scientist researching  signal analysis procedures for electromagnetic pulse effects on  aircraft. While at TRW, he received his M.S. (1985) and Ph.D. (1993) in  Electrical Engineering from the Signal & Image Processing Institute  of the University of Southern California. Upon graduation in 1993, he  accepted a staff position at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los  Alamos, New Mexico. In May 2008, Dr. Mosher joined the Physician Staff  in the Epilepsy Center to head its new magnetoencephalography (MEG)  research program.

Since 1994, Dr. Mosher has been without  interruption a Principal Investigator or Co-Investigator on competitive  grants from the National Institutes of Health, as well as several  competitive Laboratory Directed Research and Development grants. In his  research role, he has served as a formal Mentor of Laboratory-employed  students and post-docs, and as an informal mentor of his collaborator's  students and post-docs. Working closely with these students and his  collaborators, he has continuously published in his field of biomedical  research since 1990.

As of 2011, Dr. Mosher has over 2,400  citations to over 100 papers appearing in the ISI Citation database. His  landmark paper in 1992 remains today one of the most cited original  research papers in magnetoencephalography, with over 650 total citations  of the original article. Additionally, this 1992 paper was included in  the landmark 1993 review paper, “Magnetoencephalography — theory,  instrumentation, and applications to noninvasive studies of the working  human brain,” M Hämäläinen, R Hari, RJ Ilmoniemi, J Knuutila, …, ''Reviews of Modern Physics'',  which itself now has over 1,800 citations, making Dr. Mosher’s notation  and approach one of the standards in MEG signal processing.

''MEG Lab, !McGovern Institute for Brain Research<<BR>>Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA USA<<BR>>''[[http://mcgovern.mit.edu/technology/meg-lab|Magnetoencephalography (MEG) Laboratory]]

Dimitrios Pantazis, who joined the !McGovern Institute in 2010, oversees the operation of the recently established Magnetoencephalography (MEG) Laboratory within the Martinos Imaging Center at MIT.  Before moving to MIT, he was a Research Assistant Professor at the  University of Southern California.

His research interest is in the  application of signal processing theory to the analysis of neuroimaging  data, including MEG, EEG and MRI.  He has collaborated with many  neuroscience researchers and has published over 70 articles in  scientific journals and conference proceedings.

''!McConnell Brain Imaging Centre, Montreal Neurological Institute<<BR>>!McGill University, Montreal, QC Canada''

François Tadel graduated with honors from the University of Technology of Compiegne (France) in 2005, as an engineer in software and human-machine interface design. He started developing software dedicated to EEG source localization in epilepsy at the University Hospital of Geneva (Switzerland).

In 2007, he joined Sylvain Baillet at the Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris as a research engineer. Funded by the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research (Inserm, CEA/Neurospin), his mission was to redesign the Brainstorm software. Since then, he has been leading the development of the Brainstorm project from different labs and with various collaborators, including the University of Southern California (2009-2012) and !McGill University (2011-present).
