Virtual Symposium: Closing the Gap Between Research and Clinical Application – Neuroimaging Indicators of Brain Structure and Function

February 12, 2021 - 8:00 am - 2:00 pm

If you have an interest in brain imaging and want to maximize the impact of your work on human health, this symposium is for you. Spanning the full range of technological advances – from image acquisition and processing to clinical translation, to working with increasingly large datasets – this symposium will focus on ways in which neuroimaging can transform healthcare.

You will have the opportunity to hear from our expert faculty who develop and utilize mechanisms so that currently available brain images from both clinical repositories and research archives may be mined for exciting, new insights into brain structure and function – powering forward efforts to discover non-invasive, reliable indicators of brain health that help us understand disease vulnerability and resilience. Speakers will share methodologies and innovations from their labs, highlight opportunities for advancing the field, and critically examine the challenges that they face.

Unique to this virtual symposium, we offer forums for participants to engage directly with our expert faculty in topic-specific breakout rooms. Trainees (student, postdoctoral, or clinical fellow) have the additional option of signing up for a mentoring circle with one of our faculty.

Human brain imaging holds immense promise for elucidating the biological basis of brain health and disease.
We hope you will be able to join us on February 12th and be a part of these critical conversations!
