Richard B. Buxton, PhD, is a physicist working in the field of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). His research interests focus on recently developed functional MRI (fMRI) techniques to measure patterns of activation in the brain, including basic studies of the physiological mechanisms that underlie fMRI, novel approaches to the design and analysis of fMRI experiments, and development of new imaging techniques to directly measure tissue blood flow.
