Arvind P. Pathak is professor of radiology and biomedical engineering at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and also a member of the Johns Hopkins Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center and the Institute for Computational Medicine. His work focuses on developing new imaging methods, computational models and visualization tools to ‘make visible’ critical aspects of cancer, neuroscience and tissue engineering.

Pathak received his BS in electronics engineering from the University of Poona, India, and completed his PhD in functional imaging from the joint graduate program between the Biophysics Department at the Medical College of Wisconsin and the Biomedical Engineering Dept at Marquette University. During his PhD he was the recipient of a Whitaker Fellowship. After a postdoctoral fellowship in the Molecular Imaging Program at Johns Hopkins University, he joined the Johns Hopkins faculty. Pathak’s research has been recognized by several awards and journal covers. These include the Bill Negendank Young Investigator Award from the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) given to “outstanding young investigators in the field of cancer MR” and the ISMRM’s Outstanding Teacher Award. He is a much sought after mentor and has advised over a hundred students and junior faculty.
