Martha L. Gray, PhD


J W Kieckhefer Professor of Medical and Electrical Engineering, HST, MIT Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Director, Madrid-MIT M+Visión Consortium

 

Martha Gray has led a multifaceted career in which she has conducted research to better understand and prevent osteoarthritis, led a preeminent academic unit, and served the profession through work with organizations and institutions. Her research has centered over the past 15 years on ways to nondestructively visualize cartilage macromolecules in vivo and in vitro. Many in industry and academia are now using the MR method developed by her group, known as dGEMRIC.

 

Dr. Gray is the former director of the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology (HST). During and since her 13 year tenure as head of HST, she shepherded its vigorous growth so that now it boasts a community of over 400 students, 65 faculty and nearly 200 affiliated faculty who create a multi-disciplinary and multi-professional environment in classrooms, hospitals and laboratories and seek to advance human health.

 

Most recently her efforts have focused on advising other institutions and governments as they pursue similar efforts. For example, she serves as the Director of the Madrid-MIT M+Vision Consortium. Dr. Gray was the first woman to lead a science or engineering department at MIT. She is an elected fellow of the AAAS, the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) and the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineers (AIMBE). She is associate editor of the Annual Reviews of Biomedical Engineering.
