Thomas L. Kemper, MD
Emeritus Professor
Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine
Anatomy & Neurobiology

MD, University of Illinois
BS, Northwestern University



Dr. Kemper is Emeritus Professor of Anatomy and Neurobiology at Boston University School of Public Health. He received his medical degree from the University of Illinois School of Medicine with residency training in internal medicine at the Rush-Presbyterian Hospital in Chicago. His residency training in Neurology was at Tufts University with further training in neuropathology and neuroanatomy at the Boston City Hospital (with D. Denny-Brown), the Harvard Medical School (with P. Yakovlev), and the Massachusetts General Hospital. Dr. Kemper’s main interests are in brain development, the neuropathology of aging in the monkey brain, and in the anatomy of infantile autism. This research is funded by the NIH.
