Fleischer Thermometry Lab
Candace C. Fleischer · Atlanta, Georgia
Research Focus
Dr. Candace C. Fleischer's lab at Emory University focuses on measuring and understanding brain temperature, particularly after injuries such as strokes. The research aims to develop new, non-invasive techniques using magnetic resonance imaging to monitor brain temperature, which is crucial for patient recovery. By combining these techniques with advanced simulations, the lab seeks to improve treatment and prognostic evaluations for patients with cerebrovascular diseases.

Career totals from OpenAlex, compared against labs that share a department. A department spans everything from one paper to tens of thousands, so bar heights are on a log scale — otherwise the largest lab would flatten every other bar to a line.
