Andreas Rauschecker, MD, PhD

Principal Investigator

Dr. Andreas Rauschecker is Principal Investigator of the Brain Research in Artificial Intelligence and Neuroimaging (BRAIN) laboratory at UCSF.  Dr. Rauschecker is a neuroradiologist and a neuroscientist by training.  He is interested in better understanding brain function and dysfunction through the use of magnetic resonance imaging, and especially through the use of advanced image analytics and artificial intelligence applied to brain imaging data.  Dr. Rauschecker completed his undergraduate education in Biology and Psychology at Georgetown University and a Master's in Neuroscience at Oxford University.  He obtained his MD and PhD (Neuroscience) degrees at Stanford University.  He then completed his residency training in diagnostic radiology at the University of Pennsylvania and his neuroradiology fellowship at UCSF.  In addition to directing his laboratory, Dr. Rauschecker is an attending neuroradiologist at UCSF and Benioff Children’s Hospital, Associate Program Director of UCSF’s Neuroradiology Fellowship Program, Director of the Education Pillar of UCSF’s Center for Intelligent Imaging (ci2), and co-chair of UCSF’s Research Data Science Council.  In his spare time, Dr. Rauschecker loves exploring the outdoors, eating great food, and traveling to new places, especially with his family.
