Instructor in Neurology, Harvard Medical School Co-Director, Core for Noninvasive Brain Stimulation
Location: United States
In 2013, Dr. Fried obtained his Ph.D. in Anatomy and Neurobiology from Boston University School of Medicine. His dissertation combined functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to investigate the functional organization of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and other brain regions responsible for working memory in humans.
From 2013-2015, Dr. Fried completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the BA-CNBS under Dr. Alvaro Pascual-Leone. This work focused on evaluating alterations in the mechanisms of cortical plasticity in older adults with type-2 diabetes mellitus, which is a major risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease.
In 2015, Dr. Fried was appointed to Instructor of Neurology and became Co-Director of the Core for Noninvasive Brain Stimulation. He also oversees the training program in TMS and the fundamentals of neurophysiology for new fellows and research assistants at the BA-CNBS.
