Biography
Jeffrey David Lewine, PhD is a Professor of Translational Neuroscience, and the Director of Business Development at the MIND Research Network in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He is also the Director of Neuroscience for Lovelace Scientific Resources; an adjunct associate professor in the departments of Psychology and Neurology at the University of New Mexico; the Director of Clinical Research for Cognionics Inc.; and the CEO of the Center for Advanced Diagnostics, Evaluation, and Therapeutics. Dr. Lewine received his doctorate in neuroscience in 1989 from the University of Rochester. Following completion of his graduate training, he was named a Director's Fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory where he worked on the development of advanced brain imaging technologies. Dr. Lewine has previously directed functional brain imaging programs in New Mexico, Utah, Kansas, and Illinois, and his research uses advanced behavioral, psychophysical, imaging (MRI, fMRI, DTI, SPECT), and electrophysiological (EEG, MEG) methods to study brain structure and function in health and disease. Dr. Lewine evaluates human subjects and animal models to explore a wide range of clinical conditions including autism, dementia, epilepsy, reading disorders, schizophrenia, PTSD, and traumatic brain injury. These investigations include the development and evaluation of novel therapies and biomedical countermeasures, and they have been funded by the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Energy, the Department of Defense, and the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority. Dr. Lewine has directed functional brain imaging programs in New Mexico, Utah, Kansas and Illinois, and is the co-author of more than 100 peer-reviewed research articles and book chapters.
