Juan Iglesias is an Associate Professor of Radiology and researcher in medical image computing with 11+ years of experience translating advanced machine learning into practical neuroimaging tools. He develops "out of the box" algorithms that analyze brain MRI of any resolution or contrast—enabling large-scale analysis of uncurated hospital datasets, portable low-resolution scans, and even 3D-reconstructed dissection photos. His parallel work builds ultra-detailed anatomical models from ex vivo histology and applies them to automated segmentation of in vivo MRI, bridging microscopic anatomy and clinical imaging. Based at Harvard and affiliated with MIT CSAIL and the Martinos Center, he combines academic leadership with hands-on software contributions, including improvements to Brainstorm’s core inverse methods for MEG/EEG. Trained in bioengineering and electrical engineering, he brings a rare mix of statistical learning theory, non-linear systems insight, and practical neurophysiology tooling to clinical imaging challenges.
