Description:	Dr. Lawrence (Larry) Wald is Director, of the MRI core facility at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging (Harvard-MIT-Mass General Hospital) and an Associate Professor in the Department of Radiology, Harvard Medical School. Larry is a world leader and pioneer in high field MRI applications and parallel imaging techniques A major goal of Larry’s work is to bring the instrumental resolution of the fMRI experiment to the level where we can explore the biological spatial limits of fMRI. An order of magnitude improvement is needed to readily resolve the next lower level of the cerebral cortex: that of laminar and columnar structures. This includes developing 3D isotropic fMRI encoding methods to increase the spatial resolution of fMRI to approach these technical boundaries.
