he BIDMC investigators included in the listing of Highly Cited Researchers include:

Donald E. Cutlip, MD, is Section Chief of Interventional Cardiology in BIDMC’s CardioVascular Institute. His work addressing stent thrombosis was one of Thomson Reuters’ most highly cited papers, providing a standardized method to design and report results evaluating the clinical trials of coronary stents.

Michael D. Fox, MD, PhD, is the Director of the Laboratory for Brain Network Imaging and Modulation in the Department of Neurology. His research focuses on the development of new and improved treatments for neuropsychiatric diseased based on understanding brain networks and the effects of brain stimulation.

C. Michael Gibson, MD, PhD, is an interventional cardiologist who pioneered our understanding of the open artery hypothesis as well the importance of restoring flow downstream in the capillary bed in the “open microvasculature hypothesis” in cases of heart attack. He has invented measures of coronary blood widely used today (TIMI frame count, TIMI myocardial perfusion grade.)

Sharon K. Inouye, MD, MPH, is a member of the Division of Gerontology at BIDMC and Director of the Aging Brain Center in the Institute for Aging Research at Hebrew SeniorLife. Her clinical investigations focus on the diagnosis, risk factors, prevention and outcomes of delirium in elderly patients and the interface of delirium and dementia.

Bruce E. Landon, MD, MBA, is a member of the Department of Medicine at BIDMC and his research focuses on the organization and financing of health care and its relationship to the costs and outcomes of care.

Jeffrey J. Popma, MD, is Director of Interventional Cardiology Clinical Services at BIDMC. His research focuses on the angiographic evaluation of new technology and transcatheter aortic valve replacement. His group has served as the core laboratory for numerous new technologies including those for carotid and coronary applications.

Clifford B. Saper, MD, PhD, Chairman of Neurology at BIDMC, studies the brain circuitry that controls basic functions, including sleep-wake cycles and circadian rhythms, as well as cardiovascular and respiratory function, identifying the brain’s sleep-promoting systems as well as brainstem circuitry controlling autonomic and respiratory activity.

Michael S. Seaman, PhD, is an investigator in the Center for Virology and Vaccine Research where his work focuses on the development of a vaccine against HIV-1/AIDS. He conducts both basic research in the laboratory setting and is testing candidate vaccines in human clinical trials.

Larry J. Seidman, PhD, of BIDMC’s Department of Psychiatry and Director of the Commonwealth Research Center, studies cognition, brain function and structure and their treatment in youth at risk for psychotic disorders, especially schizophrenia, focusing on development of early intervention and prevention strategies.
