Keith M. Vogt, MD, PhD

I am a practicing anesthesiologist and physician-scientist. My research themes heavy leverage my background as an engineer.  After earning a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering I received my PhD in Biomedical Engineering from The Ohio State University, with dissertation focused on novel quantitative analysis of functional MRI data.  I have since expanded my own project umbrella to include functional connectivity analyses and multi-voxel pattern activation.  This neuroscience work has predominantly focused on understanding cognitive processes that characterize consciousness, including memory formation and the experience of pain.  I also collaborate on projects that employ machine learning of neuroimaging and electronic health record data to predict and minimize the risk of adverse events in the perioperative period.
