Dr. Duyn is a tenure-track MRI physicist
with an interest in the basic development and application of state-of-the-art
MRI acquisition techniques. His field of expertise covers structural MRI,
as well as functional MR techniques that allow the measurement of biophysical
parameters in-vivo, including proton metabolism, perfusion, diffusion,
and oxygenation. At NIH, Dr. Duyn is chair of the FAES educational course
on MRI, the MRI intramural interest group, and the NMR center's technology
subcommittee. He is currently mentor to three postdoctoral fellows.
Dr. Duyn received his Ph.D. degree from Delft University
of Technology, Netherlands, in 1988, followed by two postdoctoral fellowships:
one in atomic physics, at the University of Trento, Italy, and one in MRI
spectroscopy, at the University of California, San Francisco.
Dr. Duyn's current interests include fast acquisition and
analysis techniques for functional and spectroscopic MRI, and involve software
and hardware design for novel MRI technology. Recent projects include the
development of methodology for the measurement of blood oxygenation and
tissue perfusion changes during brain activation.
