New Center to Advance Understanding of the Brain
Boston University creates the Neurophotonics Center and recruits one of the world’s preeminent researchers in the field to lead it. David Boas joins BU from the faculty at Massachusetts General Hospital, where he pioneered new technologies to see deep into the brain. His work has improved our understanding of the organ’s healthy functioning and offers new pathways to understand how strokes, migraines, Alzheimer’s disease, and other neurologic maladies affect it.
