Biography

Bio

Dr. Bolan is an Associate Professor in Radiology. After receiving his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois (UIUC) and post-graduate studies at UC Berkeley, Dr. Bolan spent five years working in industry as a software engineer. He joined Dr. Michael Garwood's group at the University of Minnesota in 1999 and received his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering in 2003 while developing methods for performing quantitative MR spectroscopy of breast cancer. He has continued at the UMN Center for Magnetic Resonance Research as a postdoc, Assistant, and Associate Professor. His research focuses on developing methods for quantitative MR imaging methods and integrating advanced imaging methods into clinical trials of cancer and obesity.
