Narrative Bio
Farhad Ghoddoussi, Ph.D., earned his doctoral degree in Physics from Wayne State University in 2003. After postdoctoral studies in neuropharmacology, he joined the Department of Anesthesiology at Wayne State University School of Medicine where he is currently a Research Associate.
Dr. Ghoddoussi's current research interest includes the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopic techniques (MRS) in studying the neurochemical mechanisms of action of different pharmacological agents such as anesthetics and drugs of abuse. He also has utilized the same techniques to study neuropsychiatric disorders (epilepsy, ALS, schizophrenia, depression) cancer and genetic modifications on the neurochemical profiles in rodent or excised tissues of the human brain.
