David Clayton, PhD, research and development engineer, has worked at Stanford for over five years. Prior to working at Stanford, Dr. Clayton studied physics and ran cross-country and track as an undergraduate at Rutgers University. After graduation, he earned his MS in physics at the University of California, Los Angeles, and a PhD in biophysics at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2000, he began working at the Lucas Center as a postdoctoral fellow, researching novel techniques for spectroscopic MR imaging with clinical applications. Three years later, he became a research associate, focusing on improving acquisition and reconstruction methods for parallel MR imaging. In his current position, Dr. Clayton develops software for database management, web sites, and scanner quality assurance for the Lucas Center and Radiology Department. When not working, he enjoys running, cycling, hiking, backpacking, and skiing.
