Target group and Aim of the workshop
Welcome to "Imaging possibilities for breakthrough in medical research," an event at the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University, starting 09:00 May 11, 2022. The workshop seeks to engage medical researchers and clinicians to discuss existing and novel experimental approaches being used to understand diseases. Participants may have specific knowledge of methodologies relating to different topics or may have a specific biological or medical research question that can be addressed by new technology to study the disease in models and in patients. This will be a half-day meeting, introduced by keynote speakers and containing contributed talks/scientific question/solution descriptions.
