Michael P. Milham, MD, PhD, is an internationally recognized neuroscience researcher and the founding director of the Center for the Developing Brain at the Child Mind Institute. He is also a practicing child and adolescent psychiatrist. Dr. Milham has worked to advance a Big Data research agenda in the neuroimaging community, which focuses on open data sharing as a means of achieving the large-scale samples needed to capture the broad range of presentations in psychiatry. He co-founded the 1000 Functional Connectomes Project and founded its International Neuroimaging Data-Sharing Initiative (INDI). These efforts have helped to bring major consortia to the community, including the ADHD 200, Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange (ABIDE) and Consortium for Reliability and Reproducibility (CoRR). Dr. Milham is also the founder and director of the Nathan Kline Institute Rockland Sample, designed to map brain development, maturation and aging in 1000 individuals, openly sharing the data. Most recently, he founded the Child Mind Institute Healthy Brain Network — an initiative aiming to create a large-scale (10,000 participants) resource for the scientific community to study child and adolescent mental health. Dr. Milham has had over 250 articles published since 2005 and has been a Thomson Reuters Highly Cited Researcher every year since 2014. He received the Organization of Human Brain Mapping’s Wiley Young Investigator Award in 2014 and has received honors and funding support from the National Institute of Mental Health.
