Jun 16, 2021 · Laura Lewis, a Boston University College of Engineering assistant professor of biomedical engineering, is developing groundbreaking methods for peering into the human brain during sleep. The Pew Charitable Trusts announced Tuesday that Lewis will be one of their newest research fellows.
Feb 2, 2024 · Laura Lewis, Ph.D., received a doctorate in neuroscience from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2014. She continued her postdoctoral training at nearby Harvard University and Massachusetts General Hospital until 2018, and in 2019 she joined the faculty at Boston University as an assistant professor of biomedical engineering.
Her fast, high-resolution neuroimaging techniques can detect activity in these complex brain circuits. She employs computational and systems neuroscience approaches to study how large-scale brain networks shift between sleep and wake states, and how sleep deprivation leads to cognitive dysfunction.
