Anders Dale
Anders Martin Dale is a prominent neuroscientist and Professor of Radiology and Neuroscience at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD).[1] Dale wrote and founded the brain image analysis software FreeSurfer as a graduate student at UCSD. [2] He later co-developed FreeSurfer at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School with Bruce Fischl. [3] In addition to FreeSurfer, his major scientific contributions include developing: a) event related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) (with Randy Buckner at Harvard), [4] b) an in vivo method to quantify the gray matter thickness of the cerebral cortex using MRI images (with Bruce Fischl at Harvard), [5], c) an analysis platform to combine fMRI with magentoencephalography (MEG), [6] d) computational morphometry to automatically label subcortical (with Bruce Fischl at Harvard) [7] and neocortical (with Bruce Fischl at Harvard and Rahul Desikan and Ron Killiany at Boston University) [8] regions of the brain using MRI, and e) MRI-based methodologies to quantify longitudinal change in neuroanatomic regions (with Dominic Holland at UCSD).
