Anna Devor

Anna Devor (; born 1972) is an Israeli-American biomedical engineer who is a full professor at Boston University. Her research considers neuronal imaging and new strategies to better understand brain function. She is the editor of Neurophotonics, an SPIE journal. Also, Anna Devor has additional work with MGH/HST Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging.

Early life and education Devor was an undergraduate student in Israel. She moved to the Hebrew University of Jerusalem for doctoral studies, where she studied biophysical mechanisms of membrane potential oscillations in a network of coupled neurons.

Research and career Devor launched her own research laboratory at University of California, San Diego in 2005, where she has worked on technologies that enable the real time detection of brain activity. She combines these measurements with system-level analysis and functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Devor has developed summer schools based on neuroimaging, microscopy and blood flow regulation. Devor is the editor-in-chief of Neurophotonics, an SPIE journal.
