* A clinical 3T and 7T MRI system
* Two 9.4T small-animal scanners
* Hyperpolarization technologies
* Comprehensive infrastructure for translational cardiometabolic research
This platform enables the development and application of imaging and spectroscopic methods from animal models to clinical use in humans.
By combining state-of-the-art magnetic resonance spectroscopy, cardiovascular imaging, and AI-based data analysis, new imaging markers of cardiometabolic dysfunction are to be identified.
Your responsibilities
The position focuses on the development and application of advanced MR-based methods for investigating the cardiometabolic system, including:
