Congratulations to PhD Candidate @NatashaKnier for receiving the 2022 Young Alumni Award from the @UWaterloo this morning! 👏🏻🎉

The CFMM 7T MRI experienced a "magnet quench". This is an event that can be triggered on purpose, accidentally or spontaneously leading to the very rapid loss of magnetic field. The situation is being assessed - all research involving the 7T will be halted until further notice.

WMIC2022 is next week and we look forward to seeing you all there! Mark your calendars for some of the #WIMINwmic22 events. #WIMINwmic2022 #WMIC2022 @WMISWMIC
