Profession

Psychiatrist

Dr. Lee Rosen is a preeminent neurologist and psychiatrist with a long history of hands-on work with patients suffering from neurological disorders. Rosen specialises in the study of "alphas". He leads the DOD-sponsored team of Alphas, but is slowly becoming disillusioned as the team's mandate shifts from finding and helping Alphas in trouble to fighting dangerous Alphas and locking them up. He started investigating the Alpha phenomenon after discovering that his daughter was one.

Background

His occupation lead to his work with with Alphas — ordinary people with very extraordinary abilities known as Alpha Skills. Connecting at some point with the Department of Defense, Rosen was able to tap into their resources, including a rich vein of research including the MK-Ultra experiments of the 1960's.

His work has led to the formation of a group of highly evolved humans specializing in solving Alpha-related cases, sponsored by the DoD. While Rosen spends most of his time finding (and often restraining) discovered Alphas, he also leads personal and group therapy with his team, working to understand the Alpha condition.

Though not an Alpha himself, he has become the unconventional leader of the team and his nurturing personality and fatherly wisdom are instrumental in holding the group together when stresses and personality conflicts threaten to tear them apart.

It was recently discovered in episode Original Sin, that Rosen has a daughter named Danielle, who's an Alpha with a past with Stanton Parish.

Physical Appearance

Rosen is a white male. He is growing old, and due to that, his hair is white. He is physically fit owing to his healthy liefstyle which includes a healthy diet and swimming two miles daily.

Trivia

  • Rosen has also be compared to Charles Xavier, due to his goals of trying to unite humanity.
