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.
