Marc Raichle

Marcus E. Raichle is an American neurologist at the Washington University School of Medicine in Saint Louis, Missouri. He is a professor in the Department of Radiology with joint appointments in Neurology, Neurobiology and Biomedical Engineering. His research over the past 40 years has focused on the nature of functional brain imaging signals arising from PET and fMRI and the application of these techniques to the study of the human brain in health and disease.[1]

Career[]

Noteworthy accomplishments during this time have been the discovery of the relative independence of blood flow and oxygen consumption during changes in brain activity which provided the physiological basis of fMRI;[2] the discovery of a default mode of brain function (i.e., organized intrinsic activity) and its signature system, the brain’s default mode network;[3] and, the discovery that aerobic glycolysis contributes to brain function independent of oxidative phosphorylation.[4][5]
