About
Bart Rypma holds the Meadows Foundation Chair in Behavioral Brain Sciences at UT Dallas, with joint appointments at UT Southwestern Medical Center. His laboratory investigates cognitive neuroscience mechanisms using advanced fMRI techniques, focusing on neurovascular coupling in aging and disease. With PhD training at Georgia Tech, he directs research on brain metabolism's relationship to cognitive performance in conditions like multiple sclerosis and age-related decline.
Research emphases include:
- Neurovascular physiology underlying cognitive processing speed
- fMRI biomarkers for neurodegenerative conditions
- Metabolic predictors of cognitive aging trajectories
- Advanced calibration methods for functional imaging
His publications demonstrate consistent methodology development for mapping brain physiology, with recent work establishing novel approaches to quantify oxygen metabolism during cognitive tasks. Research has been funded by NIH, VA, and NSF, supporting investigations into how cerebrovascular health shapes neural efficiency across the lifespan.
Honors include:
- Meadows Foundation Endowed Chair
- Johnson & Johnson Pioneers in Science Award
- Siemens Award for Innovative Technology Research
