MR 2022, the biennial conference of the Norwegian Society for Magnetic Resonance will take place at Scandic Nidelven Hotel by the Nidelven River in Trondheim on January 10th and 11th, 2022.
We are proud to announce two excellent keynote speakers!
Mathilde Lerche's research is strongly anchored on development of biomarkers, methods and equipment to enhance the utility of hyperpolarized metabolic contrast agents for in cell and in vivo magnetic resonance investigations. A central interest is understanding and finding effective solutions to the fundamental challenge of hyperpolarization: the short signal life-time. The conducted research is particularly tuned in on the field of biotechnology where technical engineering solutions, theoretical physics translated into practice and further optimized chemistry and biological application in recent years has led on studies of complex pathologies aiming at early diagnosis and monitoring of therapeutic effects.
With a background and PhD in high-resolution solution NMR, Neil Jerome moved into MR imaging as a post-doctoral researcher and has worked with both pre-clinical and clinical imaging, studying the characterization and assessment of cancer across regions including brain, kidney, ovary, and breast. As a physicist, his focus has been understanding the limitations and value of advanced diffusion modelling in MRI. As well as teaching MR physics at NTNU, he currently works as an on-site scientist for Siemens Healthineers, attached to the Norwegian 7T Centre at NTNU and St Olavs Hospital, which houses Norway's first ultra-high-field clinical MR scanner. Neil is an excellent speaker, and with his experience from both academia and industry — we can all look forward to an amazing talk.
In addition, we are organizing a conference with a strong focus on student participation with many time slots for oral presentations.
The final schedule will be announced in December.
Day 1: Monday 10th JanuaryThe following day packages are available:
Registration (room for 1 night): NOK 2500,-
Registration (no room): NOK 2000,-
Student registration (room for 1 night): NOK 1250,-
Student registration (no room): NOK 750,-
The full registration price includes hotel room for night of 10th, meals from lunch (10th) to lunch (11th), and conference dinner on the 10th of January. There is an option to register without a hotel room if preferred. Students (i.e., bachelor, masters, and PhD candidates) are offered a discount (and might be required to share a room). After registration you will be forwarded an invoice for payment.
The Norwegian Society for Magnetic Resonance has as one of its main goals to strengthen the scientific bonds between MR researchers at the universities in Norway. We encourage sharing research experience and important scientific improvements within biochemistry, organic chemistry, medical research and many other fields. We hope that as many of you as possible can join us in Trondheim in January 2022 to meet new and old NMR/MRI friends.
We look forward to seeing you in Trondheim.
We are happy to present our generous sponsors!
