Several CIBIT HDR students travelled to London in May to present their research at the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) annual conference. For many this was the first opportunity to attend a major conference in person.
Paddy Hooper "I would say the highlight of the conference was meeting with metrology experts who are defining the standards for quality assurance in MRI and gave invaluable advice that will boost the quality of my work. The educational component of the conference was helpful, and it helped cement fundamental knowledge of the discipline that can be easily overlooked. All of these experiences were uplifting and made me feel connected to the MRI community."
Elaine Kuan "The conference was very eye-opening, and it was enlightening to be able to attend a conference at this scale. It was great to see the research that is being done internationally as well as getting a glimpse into how the MR industry is evolving. I particularly enjoyed the poster sessions, which allowed conversations and in-depth discussions with peers and experts who are working in similar areas."
Chia-Yin Wu "Getting to personally meet and chat with some of the experts whose names have appeared on many papers was a highlight for me. The conference was also very informative with educational talks which allowed us to get a taste of other areas of MR research outside our own focused topics."
