Dmitry Novikov is an Associate Professor in the Department of Radiology with expertise in tissue microstructure and magnetic resonance imaging. His research focuses on using analytical numerical modeling methods to quantify and interpret cellular-level tissue structure changes during disease based on MRI contrasts. By employing biophysical modeling of diffusion and nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation, Novikov aims to achieve specific tissue feature resolutions ranging from 100 to 1000 nanometers. His work specifically addresses MRI measurements of diffusion and transverse relaxation to quantify various aspects such as cell sizes, membrane permeability, and iron accumulation. This research aims to identify quantitative biomarkers for diseases including neurodegenerative conditions, tumors, and myopathies. He holds a PhD in Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and completed his postdoctoral training at Princeton University and Yale University, both in Physics.
