Manoj K Sammi

Manoj K. Sammi, Ph.D., is a researcher specializing in magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and advanced imaging techniques. His work focuses on developing novel MRS methodologies, integrating PET-MR data (PETAMR), and studying ethanol metabolism in the brain. He holds a Ph.D. in Chemistry from SUNY Stony Brook and completed postdoctoral training at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), where he pioneered work in ethanol brain mapping and transverse relaxation analysis.

Education:

• Ph.D. in Chemistry, State University of New York at Stony Brook, 1999
• Postdoctoral Fellow, Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Medical Department

Research Interests: Dr. Sammi's research spans PETAMR integration, perfusion imaging, and metabolic activity diffusion imaging (MADI). His work bridges chemistry, physics, and clinical neuroscience, with applications in neurological disorders like multiple sclerosis and aging studies. He has pioneered techniques to measure ethanol kinetics and brain metabolites using high-field MR systems.

Labs and Teams: Collaborates extensively with institutions like Oregon Health & Science University (co-authors include Dennis Bourdette and William Rooney), focusing on neuroimaging innovations. His work has led to three patents in semiconductor processing and a pending patent in environmental purification technologies.
