James G. Pipe, PhD

Director, Neuroimaging Research
Director, Keller Center for Imaging Innovation

Dr. Pipe received a BSE and an MSEE in electrical engineering, and an M.S. and a Ph.D. in bioengineering from the University of Michigan. He also completed a National Institutes of Health Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Michigan. After serving on the faculty of the Department of Radiology at Wayne State University, he joined Barrow Neurological Institute in 1999, where he now serves as the Director of Neuroimaging Research.

He is an adjunct faculty member in the Departments of Bioengineering and Electrical Engineering at Arizona State University. Dr. Pipe serves on the Board of Trustees of the International Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, advisory boards for GE Healthcare and Stanford University’s Radiology Research Center, and the editorial boards of the journals Magnetic Resonance in Medicine and Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Dr. Pipe's research focuses on developing next-generation methods for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that have a significant, positive impact on patient care. He invented the first commercial method for MRI specifically designed to eliminate the blurring of images caused by patients moving during an MRI scan. This method is now sold on almost all commercial scanners. He also works on methods to improve imaging of brain structures, function, and connectivity as well as on methods for measuring blood flow. He continues to help establish the mathematical underpinnings of innovative MRI techniques intended to reduce scan times while increasing the information available to physicians.
