Ted Satterthwaite is McLure Associate Professor in Psychiatry and Behavioral Research at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine. He completed medical and graduate training at Washington University in St. Louis, where he was a student of Randy L. Buckner. Subsequently, he was a psychiatry resident and a neuropsychiatry fellow at Penn, under the mentorship of Raquel E. Gur. He joined the faculty of the psychiatry department in 2014 and served as director of imaging analytics at the Brain Behavior Laboratory from 2015 to 2019. Since 2020, he has directed the Penn Lifespan Informatics and Neuroimaging Center. His research uses multi-modal neuroimaging to describe both normal and abnormal patterns of brain development, in order to better understand the origins of neuropsychiatric illness. He has been the principal investigator on nine R01 grants from the National Institutes of Health. His work has been recognized with the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation’s Klerman Prize for Clinical Research, the NIMH Biobehavioral Research Award for Innovative New Scientists (BRAINS) award, the NIH Merit Award, as well as several teaching awards.

How scuba diving helped me embrace open science
Our lab adopted practices to make data- and code-sharing feel safer, including having the coding equivalent of a dive buddy. Trainees call the buddy system a welcome safety net.

Error equation predicts brain’s ability to generalize
Four statistical measurements of neural network geometry capture how well brains and artificial networks use what they already know to solve new problems, a study suggests.

Embrace complexity to improve the translatability of basic neuroscience
Researchers must learn to view heterogeneity as an essential feature of the systems they study and a central consideration in experimental design, not a variable to control for or reduce.

Romain Brette reveals fundamental flaws in commonly assumed neuroscience concepts
His new book, “The Brain, In Theory,” offers alternatives to many of the computer science frameworks currently driving theoretical neuroscience.
