SUMMARY:Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Iron, and Machine Learning:from brain connectivity to stem cell tracking -- Prof. Qun Zhao
DESCRIPTION:Applied Physics Seminar. Iron is an essential trace element involved in a variety of biological mechanisms, such as oxygen transport, protein synthesis, and mitochondria respiration, in a living human or animal body. As a contrast agent, iron greatly improves MRI sensitivity in detecting iron-related biological process, including imaging of brain connectivity and tracking of stem cells. To improve mapping of brain connectivity, novel machine learning techniques are used to further enhance neuroimaging sensitivity.
