The MR Research Centre
The Magnetic Ressonance Research Centre
- Department of Clinical Medicine, Aarhus University, located at Aarhus University Hospital
What is the general research aim?
The Magnetic Resonance (MR) Research Center, provides state-of-the-art facilities and resources for advanced bioimaging research. Our core mission is to develop and translate new MR technology to researchers and clinicians to push the boundaries for excellence in magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging.
How is this achieved?
Our interdisciplinary research group collaborate with external collaborators to develop and utilize advanced imaging biomarkers.
