EMIM 2015 Educational Sessions

Focus on Study Groups!

The four educational sessions were organized by four of the six ESMI Study Groups:

  • Molecular Neuroimaging: From pretty colors to hard numbers
  • Hyperpolarized Magnetic Resonance
  • Image-Guided Drug Delivery
  • Current and Future Strategies for Theranostic Multimodality Intraoperative Imaging

The Mass Spectrometry and Standardization Study Groups organized educational sessions in 2014/15. All study groups held a study group meeting in Utrecht.

Contributing partner societies

We are happy about the ESMI’s long-term co-operation with the European Society for Radiology – ESR, the European Society of Molecular and Functional Imaging in Radiology – ESMOFIR, and the European Association for Nuclear Medicine – EANM and the European Microscopy Society – EMS! They contributed to the EMIM 2016 programme by organizing “Best of” focus sessions – THANKS a lot!

The ESMI Award 2016 was presented in the scope of the Opening Ceremony in Utrecht. The winner 2016 is PETER FRIEDL – congratulations! All ESMI members had been invited to nominate their favourite candidates – thanks to all of you who actively participated.

ESMI YIA 2016

The three finalists were been selected in accordance with the scores given by independent reviewers in a completely blind reviewing process. 125 young scientists applied for the YIA 2016. The winner and the finalists:

The Young Investigator Award 2016 was presented to: 

  • Stephan Düwel from Munich for his work on “Imaging of pH in vivo using hyperpolarized 13C-labelled zymonic acid” 

The further YIA finalists:

  • Disha Shah from Antwerp on “Transgenic mouse models of amyloidosis show reversible hypersynchrony of BOLD resting-state networks before amyloid plaque deposition
