🎇To all the PhD students and postdocs working on brain MRI: the ISMRBF is a 4-day school covering function, microstructure, connectivity (and more), with lectures held by truly *outstanding* speakers! Join us in Erice✨

Join us for BrainHack Rome in April 😊

We are still accepting submissions to our Research Topic "The road less travelled: pushing the spatio-temporal limits of MRI at 3T" Deadline 30th November, hurry up! frontiersin.org/research-topic…

We have two PhD opportunities in MR physics in my group at the @MPI_CBS in Leipzig, Germany: 1. Biophysical mechanisms of MRI contrast. 2. Metabolism and neurovascular coupling in activation and deactivation. More information is available at cbs.mpg.de/vacancies/open…

Please mark your calendars for the 7th ‘layer-fMRI’ virtual dinner on Aug. 22nd. We will be discussing possible translational and clinical applications of layer fMRI. With: Esther Kuehn, Joost Haarsma, and Jun Hua More info: layerfmri.com/7thdinner/

📢 New layer fMRI preprint: "A fully synthetic three-dimensional human cerebrovascular model based on histological characteristics to investigate the hemodynamic fingerprint of the layer BOLD fMRI signal formation" by @mariogbaezy et al. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🚨 Attention Colleagues 🚨 Are you doing cutting-edge MRI research at 3 T?! We are editing a Research Topic (Special Issue): "The road less travelled: pushing the spatio-temporal limits of MRI at 3T" (frontiersin.org/research-topic…) 🧵1/4

New high-resolution paper. Giving an overview about how layer-fMRI at 3T can be valuable for investigating vascular disfunction. By @MaryDrive et al., doi.org/10.3389/fphy.2…

Mark your calendars: The 6th ‘layer-fMRI’ dinner is scheduled for Feb 8th 2024. This time, we will talk about the relationship between layer-fMRI and industry. Speakers: Rainer Goebel, Robin Heidemann, and David Feinberg. Virtual event via Zoom. More info: laminauts.com/6thdinner/

Gli incentivi per il rientro del capitale umano dall'estero non si toccano! Le modifiche del Governo uccidono una norma che stava funzionando bene, e creano un danno reputazionale per il Paese. Invece di incentivare i rientri e il radicamento/natalità, si cancellano questi temi

Our new perspective article on why (and how) high-res BOLD+VASO+CVR+CMRO2 #fMRI at 3T @EmmaBiondetti frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Looking so much forward ⏩ to the next in-person ICP meeting! seevr.nl/icpn2023/

Registration is open for our upcoming four-day educational course in Laminar fMRI, Oct 2-5! The course will provide an introduction to fMRI of cerebral cortical layers and is designed for beginners new to laminar fMRI. More here: bit.ly/3s4O4ni (Image: @MichaelDatko)

@MaryJCaligiuri @MR_rat_rudy @UOY_YNiC Big plans for little Rudy!

@MaryDrive @MR_rat_rudy @UOY_YNiC Then why don’t you both head South to Catanzaro? We have a very comfortable Biograph PET/MR, and lots of cheese 🧀 (and the seaside, too!)

And today I started my 🌍 adventure at @UOY_YNiC where I tested their 3T MAGNETOM Siemens Prisma scanner - they do high res VASO, MRS, Real Time MRI, and all sorts of fancy science here! Nice people too😜

@MR_rat_rudy @UOY_YNiC Urbino? 😯 We could even meet there (Rome would be better of course). I've got *a lot* of cheese (seriously), I'm sure we'll find one that pleases your little stomach!

@MaryDrive @UOY_YNiC Some of my hoo’man keepers will be travelling to Urbino soon (august/September) to investigate novel CBV-MRI contrast agents. It would be super useful to swing by Rome and see your facilities with the team if possible? Do you have cheese?

@Nicola_Bressi Dev'essere così! Grazie mille, Nicola!

@MaryDrive Con tutta probabilità, Maria, in quel terriccio, oltre all'acqua, ci sono sali minerali della concimazione molto graditi alle api.

Cosa stanno facendo le mie api? @Nicola_Bressi

Super interesting Presidential interview for @mrm_highlights with @sreeder001 & @MaryJCaligiuri 🖊️ Great insight into sustainability too 🇨🇦🌳

@reframingchris Writewritewrite? Sometimes I just need to allow myself a handful of poorly written sentences in order to warm up and then it's fine. Disclaimer: I'm not a perfectionist.
