Jonathan T. Elliott

Professor specializing in biomedical engineering, Jonathan T. Elliott is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Engineering at Dartmouth College. His research is dedicated to advancing surgical precision through innovative techniques such as molecular guided surgery, tracer kinetic modeling, multimodal imaging, and augmented reality. These methodologies aim to enhance a surgeon's ability to differentiate between malignant and normal tissues, thereby improving surgical outcomes and patient care. Jonathan T. Elliott's academic journey began at the University of Western Ontario, where he earned his BMSc Hons in Medical Sciences in 2008. He continued his studies at the same institution, completing a PhD in Medical Biophysics in 2013. His doctoral research laid the groundwork for his current focus on optics in medicine and medical imaging, fields in which he has made significant contributions. In recognition of his promising research, Professor Elliott was awarded the prestigious Canadian Institutes of Health Research Postdoctoral Fellowship in 2013. This accolade underscored his potential to impact the field of biomedical engineering significantly. His work often intersects with surgical navigation and photodynamic therapy, exploring new frontiers in medical technology. At Dartmouth, Professor Elliott shares his expertise with students through courses like ENGG 269: Advances in Biomedical Engineering. His teaching philosophy emphasizes the integration of cutting-edge research with practical applications, preparing students to tackle complex challenges in the medical field. His commitment to education and research continues to inspire the next generation of engineers and medical professionals.
