Talk Title: “Leveraging Neuroimaging to Enhance the Neuroengineering of Stroke Recovery”

Abstract:

Bio: David J. Lin, MD is a critical care neurologist and neurorehabilitation specialist at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and an Asociate Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School. In his clinical practice, Dr. Lin cares for patients with acute neurologic injuries including stroke, brain hemorrhage, and traumatic brain and spinal cord injury in the MGH Neurosciences Critical Care Unit. He is the Director of the MGH Neurorecovery Clinic, a program which provides longitudinal, neurorehabilitation-focused care for survivors of stroke and other acute nervous system injuries. In his research program, funded by sources that include the National Institutes of Health and the Department of Veterans Affairs, Dr. Lin directs the MGH Laboratory for Translational Recovery, an interdisciplinary group of clinicians, scientists, and engineers working together to improve neurorehabilitation for patients recovering from stroke by understanding systems neuroscience mechanisms of motor function and recovery.
