portable MRI NerdFest-2 Seminars & Hackathon
📅 20–23 Nov 2026
📍 The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen)
Indicate your interest! Registration will be open at a later date www.mrinerdfest.org #NMRchat #MRI 🧲
Students in our MSBI program don't just learn imaging principles in a lecture hall; they work with tabletop MRI units, clinical scanners & wet-lab science. We sat down with program leaders Drs. Youngho Seo & Susan Noworolskito learn more: bit.ly/4ci9tyD
I've written about my journey to this book and future thoughts here

For 15(!) years I’ve been teaching introductory #MRI to grad students, and struggled to find a textbook for a wide variety of backgrounds. I'm happy to share an online textbook I created, fully open source (including code for generating figures and plots shown):

If you like this demo, you will love the great demos by @pezlarson.bsky.social that can be found here:

(Complete with python code to generate them!)
On a positive note - Happy Pythagorean Triple Square Day :) #math #MATH

This is a great analysis, especially I like the assessment of different variables on performance in detecting aggressive prostate cancer from MRI
important for ML Researchers to see work like this where real world AUCs ~0.7, showing often fundamental challenges in biomedical problems
Advances in 2D materials are enabling atomic-scale resolution in NMR spectroscopy, offering new possibilities for quantum sensing, computing, and communications. doi.org/g9zm6v
Dr. Peder Larson (@pezlarson.bsky.social) will host @ucsfci2.bsky.social's Segmentation Tools Seminar!
🗓 Wednesday, September 24
🕒 3:00 - 4:30 p.m.
📍Genentech Hall Auditorium or Zoom
See you there!
It's back to school time!

The same technology behind MRI images of injury or disease also powers nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, which is used to analyze biological molecules for research on diseases and therapeutics.

Nice demo by Mark Lescroart @neuromdl.bsky.social on EPI imaging of a single #fMRI slice. Great for teaching! :)

Radiology: Artificial Intelligence
This is a demonstration of how a single slice of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data is collected. Before this makes any sense, you will need to understand…
