Shan Siddiqi

Shan Siddiqi is an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, a neuropsychiatrist at Brigham & Women’s Hospital, and director of psychiatric neuromodulation research for the Center for Brain Circuit Therapeutics. His research is focused on causal mapping of human brain function and dysfunction. Using techniques such as functional connectivity MRI, his lab maps brain circuits to link brain lesions and brain stimulation sites that can modify different psychiatric symptoms. These circuits can then be targeted with treatments such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and deep brain stimulation (DBS) to alleviate symptoms in psychiatric disorders. His work has been recognized with multiple awards from the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation, the American Neuropsychiatric Association, the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology, Harvard Medical School, and many others.
