Manu S. Goyal, MD, is an associate professor of radiology and principal investigator in the Neuroimaging Labs Research Center for Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. A clinical expert in stroke and cerebrovascular imaging, Goyal has prior training in radiology, neurology and neuroradiology. Along with Andrei G. Vlassenko, MD, PhD, he directs an NIH-funded human brain imaging lab that aims to study mechanisms underlying brain aging and resilience to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, and stroke. The lab is particularly focused on applying advanced brain PET and MRI techniques and multi-modal analytical methods to studying the human brain. Goyal is also a neuroradiologist for clinical studies at the Blantyre Malaria Project in Blantyre, Malawi.
