Russell Poldrack is the Albert Ray Lang Professor of Psychology at Stanford University, with an additional courtesy appointment in Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. He serves as Department Chair in Psychology, Associate Director of the Stanford Data Science Initiative, and Director of the Center for Open and Reproducible Science. A British Academy Fellow (2023), Poldrack leads research at the intersection of cognitive neuroscience and neuroinformatics, focusing on decision-making, executive control, and open science frameworks like NeuroSynth and OpenNeuro.
- Developed fMRIPrep pipeline for standardized neuroimaging preprocessing
- Championed reproducibility in fMRI analysis through multiverse analysis frameworks
- Created hyve visualization engine for composite neuroimaging representations
His recent publications address decision-making mechanisms (eLife 2025), fMRI reliability (Nature Human Behaviour 2024), and machine learning reproducibility (Science Advances 2024). Poldrack's lab has produced over 150 published reuses of shared neuroimaging data through the OpenNeuro platform, while his Poldrack Lab continues to explore self-regulation ontology in clinical populations. He currently oversees 13 independent studies through Stanford's Neuroimaging Data Science program.
