Marco Loggia is a US-based Italian neuroscientist who specializes in brain imaging. He is an associate professor at Harvard Medical School, and directs the Pain and Neuroinflammation Imaging Laboratory, located at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). He is also the co-director of the Center of Integrative Pain NeuroImaging (CiPNI) at MGH.[1] He is known for his work on brain mechanisms of pain, especially using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)[2][3] and positron emission tomography (PET).[4][5] He has been a pioneer in the use of Arterial Spin Labeling[6][7] and second-generation TSPO PET ligands for the study of chronic pain.[4][5] He is a Section Editor for the journal PAIN, and also serves on the editorial board for the Journal of Pain and Pain Medicine. His work has been highlighted by many media outlets, including Popular Science,[8] New Scientist,[9] Scientific American,[10] ABC News,[11] la Repubblica,[12] Sky TG24,[13] the Harvard Gazette[14] and others.
