Benjamin Tendler is a Sir Henry Wellcome Postdoctoral Fellow at the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences (NDCN) of the University of Oxford. As a physicist specializing in neuroscience, his work focuses on developing advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) techniques to study brain structure and disease-related changes, particularly through steady-state diffusion MRI which captures water motion at cellular scales.
- Research Themes: Diffusion Imaging, Quantitative MRI, Post-Mortem Neuroimaging, Magnetic Susceptibility Imaging
- Advocacy: Founder of the Digital Brain Bank for open-access post-mortem neuroimaging datasets; Promotes Lab Handbooks to improve research communication
His publications highlight innovations in steady-state diffusion MRI, Monte-Carlo simulations for tissue microstructure, and integration with Neural Posterior Estimation (NPE). He has received the Sir Henry Wellcome Postdoctoral Fellowship to advance these methodologies, currently emphasizing post-mortem applications. Benjamin combines technical development with broader efforts in open science and research culture reform.
Selected Scientific Contributions:
- Developed steady-state diffusion MRI for cellular-level brain imaging
- Created the Digital Brain Bank data platform
- Advancing lab communication standards via the Lab Handbooks initiative
