David Busch, Ph.D. Assistant Professor School Medical School Department Anesthesiology & Pain Management | Biomedical Engineering | Neurology Graduate Programs Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience Biography Dr. Busch’s work focuses on developing non-invasive and minimally invasive optical tools to monitor deep tissues in health and disease, as well as throughout therapy. He received a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania (Physics) in 2011 and completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Neurology at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, prior to joining the faculty at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in 2018. Dr. Busch is currently an assistant professor in the Departments of Anesthesiology and Pain Management, Neurology, and Biomedical Engineering, as well as a member of the Biomedical Engineering and Neuroscience Graduate Programs. Dr. Busch’s research is currently supported by NIH NINDS and NIBIB and formerly by the Fulbright, Thrasher, and Hartwell Research Foundations.
