It\u0027s a challenge to be open and transparent in our work,\u201d Calhoun said. \u201cVisualization is hard and subjective, we have to work to make the links between our fancy models, the underlying data, and our conclusions about the brain, as transparent as possible.\u201d\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EHe\u0027s made many contributions to the field, including authorship on over 1,000 papers in industry journals, generating over 100,000 citations within the research community.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMuch of his work has focused on developing data-driven approaches to study brain dynamics, multimodal neuroimaging of the brain, and brain biomarkers across a range of mental and neurological conditions.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECalhoun is the founding director of the tri-institutional \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/trendscenter.org\/\u0022\u003ECenter for Translational Research in Neuroimaging and Data Science\u003C\/a\u003E (TReNDS), a joint effort between Georgia State, Georgia Tech, and Emory University. The Center\u2019s goal is to improve the understanding of the human brain using advanced analytic approaches with an emphasis on translational research such as the development of predictive biomarkers for mental and neurological disorders.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECalhoun received his bachelor\u2019s degree in electrical engineering (EE) from the University of Kansas, a pair of master\u2019s degrees in biomedical engineering and information systems from Johns Hopkins University, and a Ph.D. in EE from the University of Maryland Baltimore County.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBefore coming to Georgia Tech, he worked as a research engineer in the psychiatric neuroimaging laboratory at Johns Hopkins, the director of medical image analysis at the Olin Neuropsychiatry Research Center.
