Research interests

My research programme aims at streamlining imaging biomarkers to the clinics by methodically addressing the challenges at the interface between on one side MRI physics & imaging and on the other biology & medicine. My work lies at the intersection of these fields, covering the development of novel MRI modalities and applied  biomarkers, and the systematic validation of both the MRI measure and the biomarker.

Main research interests:

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (preclinical & clinical)
  • NMR, Diffusion & Flow MRI
  • Brain Perfusion and Blood-brain barrier permeability MRI
  • MRI / histology correlation
  • MRI phantom design and development for validation and multi-site harmonisation
  • Neuro-radiology

Main biomedical applications:

  • Tumour invasion (i.e. Brain tumours)
  • Neurovascular diseases (i.e. stroke, small vessel disease)
  • Neonatal encephalopathy
