Berkin Bilgic

About me:

I am an Assistant Professor in Radiology at Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Harvard Medical School.

I am interested in MRI data acquisition and reconstruction, in particular,

• Parallel imaging and compressed sensing,
• Fast clinical imaging,
• Machine Learning,
• Quantitative parameter mapping, and
• Diffusion imaging.
