<p><strong>Michael L. Lipton, M.D., Ph.D., F.A.C.R.</strong><br />Dr. Lipton, a neuroradiologist and neuroscientist, is Associate Director of the Gruss Magnetic Resonance Research Center at Einstein and &nbsp;Medical Director of MRI Services for Montefiore Health, both in New York. He divides his professional time between the clinical practice of neuroradiology, teaching and research. Dr. Lipton&rsquo;s research broadly addresses the use of advanced noninvasive imaging technology to reveal heretofore-inaccessible substrates of brain dysfunction, particularly in the realms of behavior and cognition. More specifically, his research program has focused for nearly a decade on detecting and characterizing the effects of mild brain injury (AKA concussion). Specific areas of emphasis at present include the understanding of inter-individual differences in the manifestations of brain injury and the cumulative effects of repetitive subconcussive injury in sports. Dr. Lipton&rsquo;s work on the impact of subconcussive &ldquo;heading&rdquo; on brain structure and function in amateur soccer players, funded by the Dana Foundation and the National Institutes of Health, has been reported extensively in the press worldwide.</p>
