My background is a solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) but I have worked with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for over 10 years now.
I’m an engineer with strong research interest. My main interest is to develop advanced preclinical MRI and PET/MRI methods to study the mechanism of heart disease.
Research area
- Fibrosis
- Imaging
