David J. Brady is an American optical scientist and engineer. He is the J. W. and H. M. Goodman Endowed Chair in Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona, where he leads the Camera Lab.[1]

Early life and education

Brady received a Bachelor of Arts degree, summa cum laude, in physics and mathematics from Macalester College in 1984. He earned a Master of Science (1986) and a Ph.D. (1990) in applied physics from the California Institute of Technology. His doctoral research examined photorefractive volume holography in artificial neural networks.[2]

Academic career

Brady began his academic career at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, where he served from 1990 to 2001 as assistant, associate, and full professor in electrical and computer engineering.

He later joined Duke University’s Pratt School of Engineering, where he held the Addy Family Professorship in Electrical and Computer Engineering and served as Director of the Fitzpatrick Institute for Photonics. From 2009 to 2021 he held the title of Michael J. Fitzpatrick Professor of Photonics and subsequently became Professor Emeritus. From 2016 to 2019, he was also Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke Kunshan University.

In 2021, Brady joined the Wyant College of Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona as the J. W. and H. M. Goodman Endowed Chair in Optical Sciences.

Research

Brady’s research focuses on computational imaging and compressive sensing techniques. He is associated with development of snapshot compressive imaging methods, including coded aperture snapshot spectral imaging (CASSI).[3]

He led development of a terrestrial gigapixel camera system described in Nature in 2012.[4] The system received coverage in Physics World.[5]

His research also includes interferometric imaging and array camera architectures.

Entrepreneurship

Brady has founded or co-founded imaging technology companies including Centice Corporation and Aqueti. Centice Corporation received an R&D 100 Award in 2006.

Publications

Brady is the author of Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy (2009) and Computational Optical Imaging (2025). His research has appeared in journals including Nature, Science, Optics Express, and Nature Communications.

Honors

Brady is a Fellow of Optica, SPIE, and IEEE. He received the SPIE Dennis Gabor Award and the Emmett N. Leith Medal from Optica.
