http://www.bme.cornell.eduEventsThu, 20 Jun 2013 02:22:33 -0400 Faculty members from life science and engineering departments at universities interested in clinical training for predoctoral students are invited to attend a two-day workshop on July 11-12 at the Weill Cornell Medical College in New York.  The workshop will explore diverse clinical training models and strategies from the standpoints of trainees, instructors, and clinical mentors.  Workshop participants will also help define useful instructional materials to be developed to enhance experiences and education of clinical trainees.  Faculty members who currently participate in clinical training programs for predoctoral students and faculty members who aspire to develop similar programs are invited to participate.  Accommodations in New York will be provided for workshop participants.  There is no registration fee. This project is sponsored by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the Cornell Clinical and Translational Science Center.

Magnetic susceptibility is a major tissue property that changes with organ function, disease and intervention. Recently there have been a number of breakthroughs in the inverse problem of reconstructing tissue susceptibility for QSM. Subsequently, there has been an exploding interest to study tissue magnetic property and to develop clinical and scientific applications of QSM. Major goals of this QSM workshop include: ? Provide scientists from various backgrounds the opportunity to build connections and pool knowledge. ? To catalyze the developments of QSM technology and the translation of QSM into clinical practice. ? To educate students and fellow scientists on topics including basic and advanced biophysics of tissue susceptibility, QSM reconstruction algorithms, and clinical and http://www.bme.cornell.edu/news/events.cfm?event=10607 http://www.bme.cornell.edu/news/events.cfm?event=10607 Thu, 25 Jul 2013 00:00:00 -0400 An international group of scientists and clinicians devoted to the development, application and promotion of MR imaging techniques to visualize the cardiovascular system and to improve patient care. http://www.bme.cornell.edu/news/events.cfm?event=10609 http://www.bme.cornell.edu/news/events.cfm?event=10609 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 00:00:00 -0400
