Biography

Dr. Constable received his PhD in Medical Physics from the University of Toronto. He came to Yale as a postdoctoral fellow and has been here since. In addition to being the director of MRI in the Yale Magnetic Resonance Research Center, he runs two parallel labs. One lab is a neuroscience lab focused on mapping the functional organization of the brain through functional MRI measurements and understanding the relationship between this functional organization and behavior. Such developments are leading to new approaches to functionally phenotype individuals with applications in subtyping in brain disorders and disease. Dr. Constable's other lab is focused on the development of novel MRI devices with projects around low field MRI's that can be placed in doctor's offices, with the potential to make MRI much more accessible than it is in it's current form.

Research

Overview

Dr. Todd Constable's research primarily focuses on functional magnetic resonance (MR) and understanding cognitive processes that are related to language and memory and how these processes may be altered in different disease states or with different medications. An important aspect of some of the imaging techniques he is developing is the ability to separate indirect physiologic changes associated with particular diseases or medications from those that directly impact neuronal processes.
