Sean Deoni, Ph.D.

Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation · company speakers →

Dr. Sean Deoni is an MRI physicist whose work has focused on the development and application of novel neuroimaging techniques for studying the brain structural architecture, organization, and composition. He obtained his Ph.D. in MRI physics at the University of Western Ontario, Canada, followed by post-doctoral training at King’s College London and University of Oxford. Over the past 12 years, he has led the pediatric neuroimaging group at Brown University, establishing the largest longitudinal neuroimaging study of fetal, infant, and child neurodevelopment. His most recent work has sought to transcribe these methods to more accessible low-field MRI systems to expand our understanding of early neurodevelopment. At the Foundation, he oversees a portfolio of projects aimed at promoting neurodevelopmental outcomes and identifying novel portable and wearable techniques for neurological measurement.
