Teddy Akiki, MD, is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Director of Computational Neuroscience at the Center for Precision Mental Health at Stanford University. His research integrates artificial intelligence, multimodal neuroimaging, and clinical neuroscience to develop novel approaches for psychiatric diagnosis and treatment selection. Dr. Akiki's work focuses on developing transformer-based foundation models for neuroimaging data analysis and multimodal connectomics to map neural circuits in stress-related disorders. His research has been published in NeuroImage, Scientific Reports, and Nature Reviews Neuroscience, with recognition from the NIMH and the Society of Biological Psychiatry.
As a board-certified psychiatrist with expertise in treatment-resistant depressive, anxiety, and trauma/stress-related disorders, Dr. Akiki applies principles of precision psychiatry in clinical care through the Stanford Translational Precision Mental Health Clinic, where he combines neuroimaging, cognitive testing, and pharmacogenomic data to enhance treatment selection.
Dr. Akiki's neurocomputational psychiatry program aims to advance precision approaches in mental health by identifying individual neurobiological profiles that can guide personalized interventions.
