معرفی
Christopher Rowley is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at McMaster University, focusing on neuroimaging and psychiatric disorders. His research spans neuroscience, medical imaging, and cognitive function analysis.
- Ph.D. in Physics & Astronomy from McMaster University (2014–2018)
- Postdoctoral Fellowship in Magnetization Transfer Imaging at McGill University (2018–2023)
Rowley specializes in intracortical myelin mapping using MRI, linking myelin abnormalities to conditions like bipolar disorder, Huntington’s disease, and schizophrenia. His work explores how myelin microstructure affects cognitive function, psychosocial outcomes, and aging.
His recent publications (2023–2025) emphasize quantitative MRI methods, tract-specific microstructure mapping, and histological validation of neuroimaging metrics. Collaborations include institutions like McGill University and McMaster Experts.
Rowley has taught Radiation Biology (MEDPHYS 6U03/4U03) and Physics in Medicine (MEDPHYS 1A03) at McMaster University. His work bridges biomedical physics and clinical neuroscience, with a focus on neurodegenerative diseases and mental health.
