Advanced quantitative neuroimaging

The Multiscale Imaging and Integrative Biophysics (MiiB) Unit develops novel imaging markers based on advanced yet clinically usable MRI methods and biophysical modeling, as well as their validation and translation into clinical applications. The program combines strengths in computer science and mathematics with radiology and neuroscience, with interest in imaging microscopic and mesoscopic neuropathology, with a focus on neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation.

Examples of possible summer projects for a BESIP intern include:

•    Develop methods for clustering of multidimensional MRI data (e.g., T1-T2-D) to segment microscopic neuropathology.

•    Develop efficient data acquisition and processing to further accelerate T1-T2 MRI of the brain.
