Krishna Nayak is an expert at the development and clinical translation of MRI technology, specifically those that involve pulse sequences, data sampling and reconstruction, and artifact mitigation. His laboratory has a diverse project portfolio, with the common mission to develop enabling MRI technology (e.g. rapid and quantitative imaging), and to work closely with experts from other disciplines to validate and translate this technology. His team collaborates with radiologists, cardiologists, pulmonologists, obesity researchers, otolaryngologists, endocrinologists, linguists, and MRI technicians.
He received his PhD in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University in 2001, his MS in Electrical Engineering from Stanford in 1996, and BS degrees in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Applied Mathematics from Florida State University in 1995. Dr. Nayak has published more than 120 journal papers, 300 conference papers, and 10 US patents.
