Emily L. Dennis

Dr. Dennis completed her Neuroscience PhD at the University of California, Los Angeles in 2013 focusing on structural connectivity across development with Dr. Paul Thompson. Her postdoctoral work first at University of Southern California and then Brigham & Women’s Hospital focused on the effect of traumatic brain injury (TBI) on brain structure and connectivity. Along with Drs. Tate and Wilde, Dr. Dennis is a co-PI of the Brain Injury working group of the ENIGMA consortium (Enhancing NeuroImaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis) – a worldwide collaboration including 2000+ researchers in 40+ countries seeking greater power to identify genetic influences on the brain and how numerous psychiatric and neurological disorders affect the brain. Dr. Dennis is the Director of ENIGMA-U ( https://biabl.org/enigma-u/) a free online neuroimaging school. She is also the co-PI of the Imaging Biomarker Core for the CARE4Kids Project ( https://www.care4kidsstudy.com/)
