Dr. Rémi Patriat is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Radiology at the University of Minnesota and Director of the Patriat Lab. He received his B.A. in Physics and Film Studies from the University of Minnesota Morris in 2010, followed by an M.S. (2012) and Ph.D. (2015) in Medical Physics from the University of Wisconsin.
Dr. Patriat’s research centers on developing advanced neuroimaging methods to improve neuromodulation therapies such as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). His research integrates structural and functional MRI, diffusion imaging, and patient-specific brain modeling to improve targeting accuracy and better understand the functional networks involved in movement and neuropsychiatric disorders. Dr. Patriat works to design and optimize imaging protocols, processing pipelines, and visualization techniques to bridge cutting-edge MRI technology with clinical neurosurgery.
